Andy had a passion for the Yorkshire Dales and if he wasn't at home, he would be found up on the fells. Andy was an inspirational Deputy Head of a primary school in West Yorkshire for many years and made a difference to the lives of so many children.
​
Life changed significantly when Debs was diagnosed with spinal degeneration and since she became a wheelchair user Andy and Debs have become ambassador for accessibility to the outdoors.
​
Following a short illness, Andy sadly passed away on 29th June 2021.
​
Andy’s last wish was that we raise the money to  purchase an all-terrain wheelchair specifically for children which will be located in an idyllic spot in the Yorkshire Dales, where families will be able to borrow it and will be able to share beautiful moments and enjoy the landscape that brought Andy so much happiness.

Over £16,000 was raised and we were able to purchase the first TerrainHopper…the start of Access The Dales.
