Before founding Stride Impact, I spent years working as Sustainability Manager at Dryrobe, one of the outdoor industry's most recognised and rapidly growing brands. That time on the inside, building and delivering sustainability programmes from the ground up, is the foundation of everything Stride Impact does.
I led the brand's B Corp certification journey, developed and delivered a company-wide Carbon Literacy Training programme accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project, authored the Climate Action Plan, and produced the annual Sustainability Report. Creating real projects and programs built and owned from within the brand.
That work extended beyond environmental programmes. As a half-Filipino, half-British woman who dips, surfs, hikes and paddles in the South West, I know the barriers that can make people of colour feel they don't belong in outdoor spaces. That lived experience shaped Dryrobe's JEDI strategy. From stakeholder engagement and ethical content guides through to community partnerships amplifying underrepresented voices in the outdoors.
Stride Impact was founded on a simple view: that sustainability advice for outdoor brands should come from people who understand the terrain. My consultancy comes from experience of sector pressures and genuine opportunities for sustainable and positively impactful work that exists in this industry.
Our philosophy
Sustainability that's real, rigorous, and commercially honest.
No greenwashing.
Every recommendation made is one I'd be comfortable defending in front of your most critical customer.
Commercial reality matters.
There will be no wishful thinking when it comes to Sustainabilty strategies; the programmes that are built by Stride Impact include an understanding of business constraints. They will be ambitious and achievable, with clear timelines and measurable milestones.
Outdoor brands are different.
Your customers are more informed, your supply chains are more complex, and your brand values are more exposed than most. Stride Impact works exclusively in this space because it demands genuine specialism.
