The new South East Regional Secretary is Stephen Myatt and you can contact him by emailing  Regional Secretaries. 

​The South East of England has a number of interesting places that can be explored with a dinghy apart from the well established South Coast venues.  These include:

Bewl Water -   the largest reservoir in South East England. It is surrounded by woodland. and straddles the boundary between Kent and East Sussex.  
​
Weir Wood Reservoir - situated on the northern edge of Ashdown Forest on the East Sussex border.   Before human intervention, the reservoir was a valley of the River Medway.  

Ardingly Reservoir -  located just north of Haywards Heath in West Sussex.  There are launching facilities at the Ardingly Activity Centre. 

Ardingly Reservoir

If local hosts can be found, the Medway estuary   and locations along the Thames  would provide interesting rally venues. and there may be opportunities along the coast, e.g. at Rye.    Go to the South East section on the Forum to join in the planning.
