My Offerings

  • Coaching

    I will use a range of techniques to help us analyse your current life, including obstacles and goals. We will look at empowering ways you can help yourself achieve your goals by looking after your mind and body, taking cues from nature

  • Walks

    As a mountain leader I offer guided walks, these are always slow paced with lots of breaks. They focus on connecting you with your surroundings, this is particularly important if you may not be able to access the outdoors regularly. As someone with a disability I understand this from lived experience. 

  • Speaking

    I speak about resilience, about my life; my injury, recovery and strategies I have drawn upon to cultivate resilience. These are shared as valuable nuggets people can take away and apply to their own life to build resilience, helping with daily challenges at work or at home. 

Origins of


I went from seeing other disabled people take on huge challenges like Everest or other huge mountains and being frustrated I couldn’t reach those achievements to returning to spending time in the mountains. Realising that just being back in those environments was what I was missing. And that all the things I love about mountains I can access just in different ways. This led me to become one of the very few disabled Mountain Leaders and create my offering of slow journeys in mountain environments. I have created these offerings because they were something that was missing from my journey. I wish I had known that there were other people struggling too, others who enjoy walking slowly with regular breaks.

Reach out if you are looking to get back into mountain environments and need support or guidance to do so. I have an offering of graded walks, and can also provide 1:1 guiding.

Slowing down has allowed me to explore more.
