Testimonials
Rebecca, WCS 2019
“Emma started the day with energy and purpose, tackling the challenge of balancing her work with climbing goals while still having time for family, friends, gin and cake. Though she would describe herself as an uncomfortable speaker, she absolutely isn’t! Natural, honest and with a good helping of banter, Emma reminds us of one of the reasons we love climbing - you can climb really hard and still be a normal, approachable person."
St Helen's School, London
“Emma captivated our Sixth Form students with her endeavours and adventures and explained how she has made a career from her love of climbing, which was introduced to her from the age of 7 by her father. After the lecture Emma gave Year 11 students a masterclass on our climbing wall in the Sports Hall which was a complete privilege. Huge thanks to Emma for her generosity of spirit and for motivating and encouraging the girls to raise the bar.”
