St Bees, start of the Coast to Coast Walk
Our UK specialist Leanne at St Bees - the official starting point of Wainwright's epic 303km Coast to Coast Path. Tradition dictates that walkers start the route on St Bees beach by getting their feet wet and collecting a pebble. You do the same on the other side at the North Sea in Robin Hood’s Bay. This famous UK trail covers diverse landscapes, quaint villages, three national parks and breathtaking scenery.
Isle of Arran, Scotland
🏴 ❤️ 😋 After recently visiting the Isle of Arran in Scotland, our UK specialist Leanne discovered why this stunning Scottish island is a paradise for food lovers. Here she chats with local chef John from The Sandwich Station in Lochranza, who explains just why his food tastes so good. 🥪 John and his team make THE BEST sandwiches on the island!
There is so much incredible local produce waiting to be enjoyed on the Isle of Arran, as well as gorgeous coastal walking. If you don't have time to see all of Scotland, come to Arran! 🤗

Today the 22nd April is designated as Earth Day since 1970 and we are thrilled to announce the launch of a new project in conjunction with Cleanhub. We have committed funds to remove 5000kg of ocean-bound trash which is collected in Indonesia, weighed and then re-used as fuel in the production of cement ( which has a heavy carbon footprint). This novel scheme provides verified fair wages to people in local communities in Indonesia and provides a grassroots solution where lack of local waste schemes means a lot of plastic trash often ends up in water courses and the Ocean, washing up on our Northern beaches also. It's a scheme we can proudly stand behind and a great way to help our Oceans stay cleaner from plastic pollution.
