Walking for Wellbeing, Canoeing for Confidence.
Having walked and taught nav skills and D of E for years, having walked and walked with members and volunteers of GirlGuiding UK, and having only ever worked as a canoe-club coach, on a volunteer basis, I decided in Feb 2020 to start my own outdoor adventure company doing for others what I love - walking in the hills, moorlands and local footpaths, camping, and canoeing on gentle rivers and lakes. So I did.
I deal with beginners and those with some knowledge, looking to advance their skills and enjoyment in the outdoor environment. I look after groups and individuals. My walks are for enjoyment - we enjoy the journey as much as the destination. WE are never going to be fast and furious, but instead, take the time to appreciate our surroundings, and have plenty to chat about in the pub / tea shop/ round the campfire afterwards.
