I grew up in South Wales, right next to the Brecon Beacons - it would have been impossible not to fall in love with nature! I spent many a school trip up a mountain or submerged in a river (not always on purpose!). I travelled extensively in my early 20's, teaching English in India, moving onto Australia and New Zealand where I hiked glaciers, explored caves and scuba dived and snorkelled my way around the Great Barrier Reef.

I qualifed as a primary school teacher at the age of 23 and taught in South-East London for 14 years. After having my daughter, Carys, in 2021, I wanted to pursue something different; something where I could still make positive impact on children’s lives whilst allowing me to spend more time with my family. I’m a passionate advocate for children’s mental health and wellbeing and love running The Outdoors Project - Havering. It's by far the best and most rewarding job I've ever had!

Hope to see you at a club soon!
