Lulworth Cove was the chosen location for the second Outsiders Summit - a unique opportunity for outdoor community group leaders from different cultures to come together and share their experiences. The event is a joint Outsiders Project and All the Elements initiative supported by HF Holidays and Patagonia.
The Outsiders Project and All the Elements formulated a plan for the event to bring together outdoor community group leaders working to increase access and representation for people of colour in the UK outdoors at the inaugural Outsiders Summit in September 2021 at Derwent Bank.
Supporting the summit with HF Holidays renowned hospitality provides us with brand exposure to a new and diverse audience of people.
HF Holidays hosted the second event at Lulworth Cove in April 2022, where representatives from eight outdoor community groups included Ultra Black Running, Black Trail Runners, Swim Dem Crew, and Clmbxr. Changemakers also represented nature connection, art in nature, watersports, and polar exploration. We also welcomed representatives from National Governing body, British Canoeing, and the Association of British Climbing Walls.
The event was a great success and a platform to give speakers and guests the opportunity to champion their inclusion strategies in an open forum and shine the spotlight on barriers faced by those who feel their voices are not being heard.
