"It looked magical, it looked fun, it looked challenging."
Chuck reflects on coming to Brathay 50 years ago, when he first came to work here, and how that experience went on to change the course of his life and career ever since.
Chuck’s story takes us back to the 1970s, when he first got involved with Brathay leading outdoor trips with young people across the UK and beyond.
What stands out is not just the adventure, but the people. Learning together, trying new things, and figuring it out as a group. It was a time that built lasting friendships and shaped the way Chuck went on to work with people throughout his career.
For 80 years, Brathay has helped people feel more confident, more connected and more ready for what comes next. Chuck’s story is a great example of that in action. These are the moments that stay with you. The ones that build confidence, wellbeing and life skills you carry into everyday life.
