Jo Moseley, 60, is the author of two bestselling books about beautiful places to paddleboard, podcast host, speaker and award winning short filmmaker.
Her first book Stand Up Paddleboarding in Great Britain – Beautiful Places to Paddleboard in England, Scotland and Wales was published in 2022 with award winning Vertebrate Publishing. This was followed in 2024 by Stand Up Paddleboarding in the Lake District – Beautiful Places to Paddleboard in Cumbria.
A keen hiker, cold water dipper and beach cleaner, Jo credits the outdoors with helping her navigate grief, loss, the menopause and empty nesting. In 2019 she became the first woman to paddleboard coast to coast from Liverpool to Goole, picking up litter and fundraising.
She is an OS Champion and ambassador for the Seaful charity and Red Paddle Co.
A single mum of two grown up sons Jo has a particular interest in how being active in nature can help us age happily and healthily. She loves turning her beach walk into a beach workout and does a headstand a day.
Jo also loves exploring in her van Summer.
She believes you’re never too old for an adventure and it’s not too late to make a difference.
