About the Access Forum's membership
The Yorkshire Dales Access Forum (YDAF) consists of 18 members, each representing various interests in the land. The members have been chosen to provide a balanced representation of:
- Owners and occupiers of access land and land crossed by rights of way.
- Users of Rights of Way or Open Access.
- Other interests relevant to the area such as tourism, transport, nature conservation, access for all, volunteering and health.
Members of the Forum are appointed by the National Park Authority for three years and cover a wide range of interests. Two or three of the members are also Members of the Authority.
