What is RYLA? Developing young people as future leaders 18 -26 year olds 7 day intensive course So … what is RYLA all about? Once again the programme this year is being held at the Graffham Water Development Centre from 30th August to 6th September for young people aged between 18 and 26 at the start of the course. I would like to give a brief overview of the event … It is fun but certainly not just a “jolly” It is a focussed programme designed to bring out the best attributes of the individual.

What employers say … For a number of years we have supported RYLA by sending our employees on this excellent course and we are rewarded with improved productivity. We have sent employees with very varying characters and personalities and every single one has been challenged and come back much improved.

What employers say … As a direct result of the course each employee has had a much greater focus and understanding of what they wish to achieve both at work and in life in general . We have found the course unbeatable value for money and the outstanding results consistently produced by the RYLA staff makes it very worthwhile."

What Rylarians say RYLA, a life changing experience proving that us that drive and dedication can overcome anything, whilst pushing every aspect of our lives to the limit. An opportunity to participate mental and physical challenges. Recognising the importance of teamwork, commitment and listening. Developing leadership skills and personal confidence.

What Rylarians say Inspirational, demanding, being thrown in the deep end, resulting in personal development and learning. RYLA encourages us to jump into the unknown, completing challenging activities and character building. It teaches us the value of strong relationships through leadership and team building testing mental limitations and reach full potential

£640 per candidate What does it cost? Now to the nitty gritty The total cost is £550 and is great value as in my experience similar course of this quality and length are up to 4 times this price. You will need to send a deposit of £100 with the reservation form to Dorothy Pulsford-Harris by the end of April – remember at this stage you do not have to have the name of the candidate just the intent to give someone the opportunity of a lifetime. The next payment will be by the 20th May when we will need 40% of the balance (£180) in order that we can confirm the numbers with Graffham and meet our obligations. The final payment will be the balance of £270 by mid August 08.

What next? Speak to your Rotary club Agree a candidate Visit www.ryla.co.uk What do we do next? We need clubs to reserve a place soonest so that we can gauge the support and protect our costs. Please note that you do not have to have your candidate in place when you book … this is just an indication of intent. Ideally before the end of May each club should have chosen their candidate and completed the paperwork together with settling the staged payments – more later. There is a website with all the information you need including downloadable forms if you need them. This can also be used to help inform potential sponsors as well. The website is a dedicated 1080 site and can be found at www.ryla.co.uk
