Dawn was brought up in Somerset and spent many days walking the paths of Somerset and Dorset. She studied geography and also more recently conservation. She had an early career in mapping and remote sending before working in the education departments of two wildlife trusts. It is here that she realised the importance of encouraging people of all ages and children in particular to visit and understand the outdoor world. She is also a qualified Forest schools leader. She has walked in hills and mountains around the world and having recently moved Devon is enjoying walking (and running) on Dartmoor. Dawn has recently gained her Moorland Walking leadership award. She is an guide for DNPA.
