Kathy was born and bred in Mansfield, which she describes as a good place to come from. She has lived in Cumbria for more than 20 years and feels she is becoming “heafed.” She was educated at a school where you had to fail an exam to gain admission. Her greatest achievement was to pass her Brownie Pathfinder Badge and has used the skills she learned to build up a Guided Walking Holiday business, which she runs with her husband Ken from their farmhouse on Wild Boar Fell in the upper Eden Valley.
