Shell Robshaw-Bryan, Founder and Editor

“I’m at my happiest when I’m outside, and I’ve never lost my childish curiosity or desire to explore and play in the great outdoors.”

Shell is the founder of Camping with Style and a nature-loving, comfy-camping kinda girl who believes wholeheartedly in the healing power of the great outdoors. A lover of all things alternative, she has been a regular at gong meditations and kirtan chanting for more than a decade, and has established her own daily grounding and somatic release practices.

When she’s not talking to trees or prancing around stone circles with her drum, you’ll find her on a weekend road trip, crocheting or reading tarot cards inside her tent, conquering a trig point, horse riding or plunging into open water.

Shell launched Camping with Style following a serious snowboarding accident that left her with a broken back. Rather than accept the gloomy prognosis she was given, she turned to nature to aid her recovery, and has been championing the outdoors and its profound wellbeing benefits ever since.

She’s your girl for camping, glamping, snowboarding, walking, horse riding, open water swimming, kayaking, climbing, travel and everything in between.

Mark Stuart

“I always feel most at home outdoors and amongst the trees.”

Mark likes to spend as much time as possible in the great outdoors and will try almost anything once.

An adventurous foodie, he’s a strong believer in the healing power of nature and feels at home amongst the trees. A regular meditator, when Mark isn’t being all zen-like, you can often find him climbing up things.

Benjamin Cannon

“Attempting to encapsulate my surroundings through the eye of a lens is something I love to do”

Ben is keen on all things outdoors, from rock climbing and fell running, to kayaking. He truly does it all. With a camera in tow, he attempts to spend all his free time training at the local climbing wall in order to take his abilities into the mountains and put the latest gear to the test in his favourite national park, the Lake District.

Suse Hammond-Pears

“Time and children are both really precious commodities: both seem like daunting challenges even without adding a camping trip into the mix.”

Suse is thirty-something. She juggles an enormously packed life, holding down full time jobs as a business analyst, parent and wife. She is a published scifi author, is about to start a small business upcycling clothing, is working towards a degree, and still crams an amazing amount of activity into the rest of her time including camping (which is how she met Shell). She lives in Nottingham, UK, with her husband, small daughter and a retired racing greyhound.

Suse will contribute to the site by writing articles about how to prepare for camping on an already packed schedule, and how to cope with going camping with a small child in the group.

Joanne Rowe

“Being outdoors together is where we’re most relaxed and adventurous. We find that stripping back all that we’ve come to know as human beings, makes us realise what it really means to be a human being.”

Joanne and Matt alternate long trips to be with each other in their long-distance relationship. Meeting outside of their home cities, London and Plymouth, means they can forget their day jobs and just be with each other and learn together in the outdoors.

Joanne is a media professional and folk singer-songwriter with an expertise in wildlife and great knowledge of birds and butterflies. Matt is a doctor come musician who loves the sea and learning new things.

Joanne and Matt will contribute to Camping With Style as a team, like so many of their adventures.
