Whether it's the crunch of gravel on a canal path
or the quiet hush of woodland in early morning light, the outdoors
offers something no screen or schedule can provide: a sense of space,
stillness, and connection. This book is a celebration of that magic.
Access Adventure is a collection of accessible routes crafted by Debbie,
taking you from the spectacular Lake District to the Kent and Hampshire
Coast, from the Yorkshire Dales to the Brecon Beacons and Wye Valley,
and from the Isle of Skye to Rendlesham Forest's UFO trail. Each route
is backed up with practical information and ideas for other adventures
nearby, specifically written for wheelchair-users.
This book is also a bringing together of beautiful stories: as Debbie
describes her experience of each trail alongside an inspirational
interviewee, she gives us portraits of people whose lives have been
changed, healed or uplifted by the simple act of being outside. These
aren't just walks; they are windows into the resilience of the human
spirit.
These are walks that welcome, not intimidate, and whether you're
planning your next walk or seeking a deeper connection with nature and
people, these pages offer both a guide and a companion.
