HELLO!

​

Elise (Lise) Wortley is an adventurer, writer and speaker on a mission to open up the adventure and outdoors space. Lise's community project Woman with Altitude, is dedicated to empowering people through the stories of pioneering women adventurers, while showing that adventure is not just about conquering or winning, but about connecting to people and the natural world.

​

Woman with Altitude aims to:

• Inspire women and girls across the world who don't see themselves represented in certain spaces, especially the outdoors.

• Challenge representation issues in the outdoors.

• Support women who work in the adventure space, from mountain guides to film makers.

• Explore the challenges women face through clothing, throughout history and today.

• Shine a light on inspiring women who have been overlooked or written out of history.

• Highlight the increasing levels of anxiety in young women and girls in the UK, and how nature can help us heal.
