#Makingwaves – We Are Looking For 10 Women To Share Their Adventure Story

Adventures Big and Small are good for the soul, they provide a space outside of everyday life to catch your breath and reboot. Life will always throw curveballs at us, most of which we don’t see coming and are ill-equipped to handle when they arrive.

We all find our own way to manage difficult situations; at best we navigate them with a plan and at worst we muddle by just getting through the day!

We want to inspire more women to use adventure as a way to navigate, lifes many up, downs and inevitable changes.

Here are a few ideas to kick-start your own mini adventures

🌞Keep it simple – Find out about local parks and open spaces, playgrounds, nature reserves, and sports pitches

🌞Visit a National Trust property

🌞Book a camping holiday using UK Camp Sites

🌞Plan a new hiking route using the OS Map and download the OS App.

🌞Sign up for Charity Challenge such as marathons, mud runs, 5 K’s, climbing mountains in the UK, or take on an International challenge – this is a great idea if you love being part of a big community with a common goal.

🌞Trying something new – rollerskating, star gazing, picnic in the park, or a BBQ on the beach.

🌞Visit an Adventure Festival: check out Kendall Festival– these will be full of events and people that will inspire your next adventure!

🌞Enter our photo Seaside Adventure Photoshoot! Your story will be featured in our online Gallery and will inspire others, your photo will be posted online and 10 of our entries will win a place on our photoshoot.

We are looking for 10 winning women to join our empowering photography experience in June

We’re on the hunt for a diverse bunch of women who have overcome challenges in their life and infuse their days with real passion and purpose.                                                                               

You might be emerging from the baby years, wondering who on earth you are, navigating the waters of empty nesting, wrestling with the changes of menopause, recovering after illness, or seeking a fresh start after a rough ride. Perhaps you’ve yet to take time back for yourself and this gathering is the moment that will kick-start the process.

If you can relate to any of the above, tell us the story of how you are using adventure and exploration to fuel self-discovery and propel yourself forward. 

Adventure does not have to involve flying to far-flung places (although it can do!) One woman’s molehill may be another woman’s mountain. It’s all about how the experience nudges us out of our comfort zone and enables us to grow. That’s the exciting part.

Tell us where you are Hiking, Walking, Camping, Stargazing, or having Secret Picnics? Perhaps you’ve started ‘Mudlarking’ on our coast? Climbing trees? Fundraising for great causes? Foraging or Forest Bathing?

However big or small, whatever your adventure, we want to hear your story! Check out the Gallery
