Along for the walk

Immersive coastal and countryside walks, in Cornwall’s forgotten Corner. Join me as we wander together across the wild open spaces; exploring South East Cornwall’s coastal paths; Public right of ways; cliff tops; long windswept sandy beaches; rocky coves; peaceful hamlets; parklands; wooded permissive paths and river banks. Aiming to capture the sights/sounds/smells and atmosphere of this ever changing landscape, through all weathers and seasons. The intention of this podcast is to enable anyone - especially those who are unable to get out for a walk physically, due to poor health; mobility issues or any other reason - the opportunity to feel as though you are out in the fresh air; alongside me on a walk, in defiance of your physical circumstances (and - at times- tricky terrain or bad weather) plus you don’t even need to tie up your laces! Let yourself escape outdoors and capture the "in the moment" sense of simple exploration; discover natures amazing little normalities and the calming and therapeutic benefits that a walk, - especially a walk on or near the Cornish coast- can bring. So, relax your senses, calm your mind and escape with me to Cornwall's wild and forgotten corner. A quick note: I started this podcast having been inspired by my wonderful Mum and others like her, who due to ill health are either temporarily, or no longer able to get out as freely as they used to and really struggle with that. I wanted to help them escape their current situation and find some relief; by transporting them into and alongside me on a walk, to feel connected once more with the calming benefits that walking outdoors can bring. So why not come Along for the walk...let's just go!
