Trash Free Trails is a non-profit organisation providing the tools and inspiration to clean our environment from Single-Use Pollution*.

The Dom-tastic approach to life seeps into every bone of his body and subsequently flows into his work with a drive like no other. Currently undertaking his master thesis whilst making waves with TFT he is an inspiration to us all. And on top of that still manages to maintain those luscious locks! Striving to make a difference wherever he goes, one trail clean at a time.

​A super keen rider and avid roamer (who has recently discovered the joys of running) with a background in event management, this 6'4" lump's passion for connection of all kinds, physical activity and nature is palpable. With his merit-classified MSc in Psychology of Mental Health, we've been able to make huge progress on the wellbeing of all of our projects.

The bread to our vegan butter, Rach has a way with words that not even a thesaurus knows how to compete with. Passionate for all things community - and synonyms of community driven work, she’s eager to spend as much time outside as possible. With a Masters in Movement, Mind & Ecology and changing her middle name to fairy, she's a bundle of joy to the team.

Leigh can be found most at home in the mountains, or more commonly known as with Blundstone boots on. With a camera in his hand he can make anything possible, a true gift that keeps on giving with over 10 years experience working in the outdoor industry, and being a mountain leader (classic). He is a wavemaker for community-led action. 

An absolute force to be reckoned with when on two wheels. Heather is unstoppable when she puts her mind to something. Bringing a background in environmental science, and geospatial data analysis, she hopes to inspire others to reap the benefits of our wild places. Oh AND of course she's a mountain bike coach and leader on any day ending in y.  

Ben, the man with the plan, giving Bob the builder quite literally a run for his money. Hopping on board the TFT Team during his placement year whilst studying Marine Biology he was (and still is!) keen to get stuck in wherever he can. Completing 12 ultra marathons, whilst claiming to be a 'mountain biker', his physical and mental limits appears to know no bounds...

Known as SJ out on the trails, wherever she's going - she's running. Some would say away from her problems, others would say towards new opportunities. With a degree in Industrial Design under her belt, she became hungry for using her creativity to inspire change. In doing so picked up a camera and started collecting single-use pollution at the same time.

What do you get if you mix a yoga instructor and a self proclaimed research nerd together? The superhero that is Sophie! With that cheeky grin accompanying any yellow accessory she can get her hands on, that's a lethal combo to brighten the day of anyone she meets. All whilst bringing to life our KTP with Edinburgh Napier University. Not all heroes wear capes, they wear yellow hats.

When Jasmine hits the trails, you know she’ll have a fresh batch of baked goods easily accessible in her bag. Keeping the hunger at bay is (understandably) on par with keeping the trails free of SUP. Naturally, Jasmine likes to soak up time by the sea when she's not studying Marine Biology at Bangor University, or even doing judo and salsa! Limitless.

A natural lover of everything outside, Chloe has an observant eye for all types of hills and seas, as well as plants to manatees! Joining TFT for her placement year while studying Marine Biology & Oceanography, Chloe can be found walking dogs or paddleboarding, but here at TFT she is carrying out research to on the influencing factors of our data collection in coastal areas!
