Pembrokeshire Coastal Forum Structure
The Pembrokeshire Coastal Forum (PCF), chaired by Nick Ainger MP, is made up of individuals as well as private, public and voluntary organisations. The Forum structure comprises a Steering Committee and 11 Topic Groups covering a wide range of subjects (see below). Each topic group is chaired by a representative with expert knowledge of that particular field. The Forum meets for an AGM in the spring which is open to all. The Forum is supported by the Coastal Forum Team, who are now based in Milford Haven.
The Pembrokeshire Coastal Forum is guided by the Steering Committee, which meets twice per year. The Committee consists of the chair from each of the eleven Forum Topic Groups and a representative from each of the statutory bodies on the Coastal Partnership . The Steering Committee, chaired by Christine Gwyther, agrees an annual programme of work for the PCF, helps develop the role of the PCF and Topic groups and responds to consultations on strategic issues.
