Background

An expedition is a journey with a purpose.

Since 1995 Equal Adventure has designed and delivered solutions and programmes for people of all abilities to be involved in adventurous sports.

In 2021, we launched our Ingenious Expeditions programme, returning to the roots of EA Expeditions through aiming to broaden opportunities for people of any background or ability to be involved in purposeful, adventurous and educational expeditions to remote and challenging environments.

Our aim is to excite, challenge and provide a platform for all participants to develop their performance, learn about themselves, the world around them, the people we share it with and the environments that make it.

We offer:

Expedition support for DofE participants, schools, groups, and individuals.
Inclusive field living for those who want to undertake self-supported adventures or journeys, regardless of ability.

We recognise that even a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step, and every journey starts with a conversation –Contact Us

Suresh Paul	Mike Devlin	Andy Hall
Suresh Paul, founder and director of Equal Adventure, is an Industrial Design graduate with extensive knowledge of disability, social inclusion, coaching and sports science. With over thirty years of outdoor and international expdition experience in inclusive design has run research and development projects in the UK and abroad which have combined a range of research and user involvement strategies to produce sports equipment for people with a wide range of impairments. Suresh remains active in the outdoors and can be found in an open canoe or out on the hills with his dog.	From an early age I have taken part in, then instructed and guided in all Paddlesport disciplines as well as a wide range of outdoor sports, from mountaineering, rock climbing, downhill and cross country skiing, and caving. Over the years I have paddled and travelled the rivers and mountains of Europe, North America, Canada and the South Atlantic. Working with young people, using the outdoors as both a learning and development platform, I have led trips to the Himalaya, Africa, Norway, North America, Svalbard, the Falkland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula. Inspiration and Play I now spend my time between Italy and Scotland, in winter and summer respectively. Enjoying the hills, islands, skiing, paddling and biking as weather and mood takes me.	Climbing, then teaching, has led me around the mountain areas of Britain, latterly spending 20 years as head teacher in an outdoor education centre in North Wales. Expeditions have taken me from ski touring in Alaska, first kayak descents in Nepal and Peru, to waveskiing in Oz. Now I spend my time ski teaching in Italy in winter and guiding on Scotland’s mountains, coasts and rivers year round. Inspirations and Play Where the flow and the seasons take me: 750 kms of Canadian Arctic river and seeing no one else but my companions; skiing powder in the Caucasus or backpacking with my wife in Patagonia. But where do I spend most of my time? Scotland, and in Scotland – the Cairngorms! I’m a very lucky man!
