Governance:
Paramotor championships in the UK couldn’t take place without the generous support of our governing organisations:

The British Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association
The BHPA supports a country-wide network of recreational clubs and registered schools, and provides the infrastructure within which hang gliding, paragliding, and paramotoring in the United Kingdom (UK) thrive. It oversees pilot and instructor training standards, and provides technical support such as airworthiness standards, and coaching courses for qualified pilots.
It also publishes Skywings, the only magazine dedicated to free flying in the United Kingdom. This glossy full colour magazine is distributed by mail to around 6,500 BHPA members each month as part of their membership package. You can find a number of Skywings articles, written by members of our organisation team and pilots, reproduced in the learning section of this website.
The BHPA provide a generous grant annually to the Paramotor Competitions Panel, which contributes towards helping our top pilots attend international championships, purchasing equipment to help run competitions, and training our British Paramotor Squad.
Affiliates:
Paramotor championships in the UK are proud to associate with the network of BHPA paramotor schools, who have sponsored previous British Paramotor Championships, and are so essential to the ensuring growth of the support, and the safety and skills of British pilots.
