Cyclists/walkers - some info needed

I'm decidedly pissed off with the attitudes of the minority of road/public rights of way users, (drivers, walkers, cyclists and horse riders alike) and the general consensus seems to be down to crap education for all concerned.
I want to make a move to trying to do something about that, so I want to know if there's a specific group/organisation to get in touch with, for both cyclists and walkers - including dog walkers. I think I'm best starting small, so within West Yorkshire (specifically Calderdale) is preferable, but I'm fine with being pointed to a national organisation.
I plan on targeting my local riding clubs (as a horse rider I pretty much have this sorted) as well as any cycling/running/walking groups to try and sort out better education about the needs of other users, maybe via a leaflet to be given to members of each club/group, or if anybody has any other constructive suggestions those would be appreciated. :thumb:
Obviously it's easiest for me to do the riding side of thing, so I'll be back for info on what you guys want as cyclists and walkers. I think I'm fairly well versed in the arguments the different groups have having read several different types of forum, so I'd rather you kept any debating off here.
