Branches

UK

The RIN has a number of regional Branches in the UK. RIN members who live in one of the areas covered by a Branch automatically become a member of that Branch, along with any SIGs they wish to join. Branch members get access to a lively programme of events in their area, designed to target the navigation issues and history of the region.
