The YEM Steering Group manages the delivery of the project with all members coming from geographic areas along the Yealm Catchment. These geographic areas areas are mainly delineated by Parish Boundaries as these are well known. They therefore include Newton & Noss, Wembury, Brixton, Yealmpton, Sparkwell and Cornwood. The exception is PL21, an environmental group which encompasses that postcode. Some of the environment groups are independent and exist in their own right, others are sub-committees of their Parish Councils. The important thing is that they are all cooperating to achieve common aims. Some members of the Steering Group Represent their environmental group, some are expert advisors and some serve as officers.
