Climbing and walking often takes place is denuded upland environments. I was thrilled, therefore, to be given the opportunity to work with Canoe Wales as much paddling takes places in very special places.
I know you all appreciate the adventure offered by paddling and I know that many of you appreciate the places in which you paddle. Paddling, so often, takes place in wooded ravines, gorges and along the coastal margins, these are some of the most natural places in the British Isles. These places are our last wilderness. It’s my job to help you get to know those places better and inspire you to operate in as sustainable manner as I possibly can.
If I may quote David Attenborough “No one will protect what they don't care about; and no one will care about what they have never experienced”.
