Britain's first long distance footpath runs 250 miles from Derbyshire to Scotland. It passes some of the finest scenery in northern England, much of it on hills but crossing valley after valley to give fascinating glimpses of the communities through which it passes. We walked the way in 1970, and have revisited it since. See: jaharrison.me.uk/Talks/#PW

My career was half as a Chartered Engineer and half as a chartered Ergonomics & Human Factors Consultant. My talks draw partly on that but more on my many other interests including: photography, fell walking, bell ringing, railways, bricks, human perception, maths ,... I have given around 250 talks to 100+ different groups. I'm based in Wokingham, Berkshire so limited to the surrounding area for in-person events (but online can be anywhere). Details of my talks are on my website at: jaharrison.me.uk/Talks
