Richard

Richard has been really fortunate to travel extensively with climbing, from summiting the 7500m peak of Muztagh Ata in China, first ascents in the Tien Shan range in Kyrgyzstan and summiting Peak Lenin 7000m, to an expedition in 2014 to the Greenland Icecap completing an unsupported coast to coast crossing, following the line of the artic circle. Himalayas, Norway, Africa and lots of European adventures along the way!

Trad climbing around Ireland & the UK is what we do regularly and absolutely love it!

Over the years he has freelanced for many local organisations & providers. Delivering adventurous training from sport climbing in Spain, mountain biking, NGB preparation, navigational training and lots of local days in the Mourne Mountains.

Jenn

Jenn has been climbing since 2011 when she met Richard and realised she’d need to get involved in order to see him…many years later and she hasn’t looked back!

Happiest on the side of a multi pitch route in North Wales, or swinging ice axes in the Alps.

Jenn is a Mechanical Engineer, currently working in the legal field and enjoys supporting Richard on climbing and hill days at the weekend.

She loves introducing people to climbing, especially encouraging other women to take up the sport.
