Living 110 miles from the nearest beach can have its challenges, which is why you’ll mostly find me paddling on the River Trent or any surrounding lakes or canals in the Nottinghamshire area.

As a paddleboarder and instructor, I wanted to become a rep to bring awareness and help reduce the amount of plastic and litter I see on (and in) the places I paddle.

I’m passionate about removing as much rubbish as possible and raising awareness in my local area. I believe I can achieve this with the support of Surfers against Sewage, plus with my own “ have a go attitude”, gains can be made to make my local environment a more pleasing and environmentally friendly place to be.
