Membership Type Course Director Member
Membership Number 9490
Renewal Date 27/08/2025
I started climbing and mountaineering at 14. I have climbed and led expeditions all over the world on six continents. I train and assess HML, ML and I am one the UK's most experienced SPA providers having trained and assessed on over 100 SPA courses.
I live in Sheffield but spend my winters in Scotland.
I am also qualified as a photojournalist and was lucky enough to accompany and photograph Tom Randall and Pete Whittaker on their legendary American Wideboyz trip which culminated in their ascent of the hardest off-width in the world.
