7.  Motion before the AGM proposed by Dave Woods and seconded by Guto Parry
          The meeting agrees that a change of name from "Ramblers" to "Walking GB" (or similar) will improve the image of Ramblers and bring the organisation into the 21st century thus attracting younger people and ensuring that the organisation flourishes in future years.
It therefore asks that a motion to this effect goes forward to the agenda of the North Wales Area of Ramblers Cymru at its annual general meeting in January
