I work within outdoor education in Stoke on Trent, I work at Stanley Head Outdoor Education centre and i love what i do. I also love outdoor gear, I like to keep up to date with releases and reviews which means that i can help people decide what to buy! However this usually leads to me buying stuff too!

I am persuing a BSc(hons) in Outdoor Education, I am working toward a number of qualifications including; Mountain Leader (Summer), Single Pitch Award, Level 1 UKCC. I hope to persue a life's career in the outdoor industry, working toward completing my MIC in later life.?

In my opinion, this helmets lightweight design allows for hard and fast alpine performance when combined with lightweight clothing and equipment. The unique shape is comfortable and better than its competitors.

I love these gloves! In the coldest weather in snow conditions, these gloves perform far better than any other gloves in my opinion and they only cost around 20 quid!!

They work by sealing in the warmth once the outside of the glove has a layer of ice and snow on them. Putting these on is a massive treat if your hands are freezing. I like to use them for walk ins and outs because i cant tie knots with them. As they are mittens, you lose any dexterity so a pair of fingered gloves are preferable.

The Black Diamond ATC is a well thought out and designed belay plate, it provides the user with a simple and easy to use no frills sticht plate. This is excellent for novices who would find the more complicated guide plates confusing. Therefore these are good for centre use.
