I grew up in the Peak District and first climbed on Peak Grit stone at the age of 17. With a HND in Photography, I worked in London as a freelance photographer in advertising studio’s before beginning his career in the outdoors.
I am fully qualified and hold the Mountain Instructor Certificate. This is the highest UK qualification for summer and winter climbing and mountaineering. I have worked with groups throughout the United Kingdom in both summer and winter conditions. I also work as a technical advisor to local centres and run training and assessment courses for other instructors.
My aim is to be very approachable and like helping you enjoy the outdoors.
I hope you will feel able to call or email me to chat through your aims and aspirations.
