Paul Senkans
I am a QC chemist from Manchester and have been exploring the countryside since I was a wee child in East Yorkshire. I started being a walk leader in 2001 for Cardiff University post graduates. This lasted until 2004. I joined Transpeak in June 2006 and was soon asked to be backup. I have been leading walks for TP since June 2010 and am having a grand time! My walks are a slow to moderate pace, with explanations of the natural history.
