mental health and achieving goals.

worked as a highly qualified outdoor instructor,
providing life-changing experiences to a wide range of people
from vulnerable children and young offenders to highly-motivated adults.
He has also developed a successful bike recycling project, leading
a team of people to meet challenging targets in the third sector.
His solo ascent of El Cap and current role of training and racing as a member of British Cycling and ParalympicsGB adds yet another set of learning experiences to Steve's portfolio, making him the perfect speaker for events, keynote, business development and leadership workshops as well as schools and youth groups.
