My occupation as a Forest School teacher means I am in the woods all year round in all weathers so my gear has to perform well and give long service. I also assess Duke of Edinburgh expeditions so I am out in all weathers an camping. In my spare time I have a love of Bushcraft and cooking on an open fire. When I can I like to go on backpacking trips on long distance trails and the mountains. To keep fit, I enjoy trail running and cycling.
