David has been working, creating memorable trekking adventures around the world for 15+ years now. Having spent time in HM UK Armed Forces, David learnt a lot about planning and preparation preventing poor performance and these skills are translated into all our adventures. David is a qualified Mountain Leader, First Aider and Duke of Edinburgh Award assessor. When not tied to his computer, he enjoys the great outdoors, and can frequently be found introducing young adults to new adventures.

​

A lot of potential adventurers (disabled & non-disabled alike) are initially daunted by where to start planning and ultimately completing a journey or challenge that will potentially take them out of their comfort zone - so it just stays as a thought or on a wishlist. It is our job at Mettle Adventures to help put those thoughts / wishlists into action, by taking away any mystique or fears about how to create such adventures, and to guide you through all the preparation phases so that you can safely & successfully complete a challenging adventure that might test your ‘mettle’ along the way.

 

We will be by your side from the initial thoughts / plans through to the return travel home at the end of the adventure to help calm any fears or concerns and to provide support, direction & encouragement as appropriate.

 

Adventures can start on the doorstep of our homes aswell as abroad, which is why we offer adventures within and outside the UK, including in North & East Africa, Nepal and Argentina. Some will look to use our UK and North African activities to prepare them for a challenge further abroad.

 

Lots of adventurers take on a challenge for personal reasons while some others will potentially look to do it to raise necessary funds for a charity or organisation close to their heart. We are more than happy to work with you in either regard.
