Willow and Jacob Outdoor Adventure Education all started while I was working as a Lead Facilitator at an Outdoor Education centre in Helidon, Queensland.

I had the privilege of leading a group of Grade 5 students, when I was made aware of some awful circumstances that some of the students had found themselves in back in their home environments.

Two students in particular changed my life forever - Willow and Jacob. Two students that would cement my passion for meaningful outdoor experiences and personally impacted the way I fathered my own son.

After hitting reset on a few things in my own life - my passion for seeing young people, families and communities thrive in the outdoors remained.
