From a small industrial town in County Durham, England to alpine adventures, travelling and conquering mental illness.

People laughed when I told them my dreams of climbing moutains and travelling. They criticised when I told them of my anxiety and depression.

Touching the Summit will pass on adventure and wellbeing tips from around the world and help you take the “I can’t” out of adventure.
