Our People

Emma Higginson-Smith

Our Faculty

TGR has a strong faculty of coaches, experts and outdoor adventure leaders from complex working environments. Each coach brings three dimensions: practical expertise, lived multi-disciplinary professional experience and proven coaching capability. We also harness the expertise of behavioural scientists, psychologists, policy experts and academics, researchers, and adventure leads.

Martin Brennan

Martin was a police officer for 30 years, and has represented UK Policing at the United Nations as an advisor to UN peacekeeping missions.

He is an international expedition leader and works as an experienced professional outdoor wellbeing coach. He has led police teams during high-risk dynamic investigations, protecting the lives of vulnerable victims and prosecuting offenders.

“If we truly want our teams to succeed and be resilient to deal with crisis, then we need to be open and prepared to listen to what TGR has to say.

 

TGR has introduced me to concepts I was not entirely bought into before, but having experienced them, these are now life skills that I practice every day.

 

My key focus on this has now become being an ambassador for mental wellness.

We can, one by one, all be part of that cultural change”
