Cumbria & North Lancashire Centre
YOUR CENTRE OFFICERS AND COMMITTEE
Elected at the AGM in October, the Centre committee meets several times a year, often virtually, to keep the
Centre running smoothly. Their contact details are listed in the Centre Handbook, or alternatively
you can contact them via this link -
Chairman - Mark Turner
I'm Mark, and I am the Chairman of the Centre. I have caravanned for 12 years and have been involved with the Centre since 2016. I have been in the RAF for 34 years working in various locations. I volunteer as a Cub Leader with our local Scout group and am also involved with Parkrun. In my spare time I enjoy running, fell walking and mountain biking.
Secretary - Lisa Turner
I’m Lisa, and I’m your Secretary. My family and I have been caravanning since 2014, after many years of camping. I work full‑time as a Senior Teaching Assistant at our local primary school, and I’m also active in several volunteer roles, including parkrun, Lead Volunteer for our local Beaver Scout Colony, and being a School Governor. In my spare time, I enjoy mountain biking, crafting, and baking—and of course I love getting away in the caravan whenever I can.
Rally Secretary - Bev Ramshaw
I'm Bev, the Rally Secretary for C&NL Centre. Having grown up caravanning with my family, it was no surprise that my husband and I bought our first caravan in March 2013. I joined the Cumbria committee as a co-opted member in October 2014 and took on the role of Rally Secretary a couple of years later.
I work full-time at a school in Carlisle, and when I'm not at work, I enjoy spending time outdoors. Whether I'm running, walking, paddleboarding, or exploring new places with my family, I love making the most of every opportunity to get out and about.
Treasurer - Peter Fox
I’m Peter, Treasurer for the Cumbria & North Lancashire Centre. I’m not from the local area, living in Selby, North Yorkshire. My first experience of the Lake District was in 1987 on a 3 week outward bound course. I really enjoyed the experience and promised myself I’d spend more time there in the future.
Fast forward to 2022 I took the decision to step away from work and looked for ways to spend more time in the Lake District. Having Caravaned since 2005 starting with young kids and I came across the Cumbria Centre. I took the plunge and attended a rally and the rest is history. Having very much enjoyed the people involved and of course the area, when they were struggling to fill a treasurers role, I put my hand up. So I’d encourage you to come along and give it ago.
