Jay Thompson 

 

Sea Kayak Leader - Sea kayak Coach - Advanced Sea Kayak Leader.

Jay is a sea kayaker from the Isle of Man, he is as enthusiastic about working with people as he is climbing, mountaineering or kayaking.

His day job is working for the NHS as a Psychological Therapist and Mental Health Nurse, he also regularly runs workshops and training for both adult and youth teams to raise awareness and delivers Mental Health First aid Training,

Jay initially visited the West Coast of Greenland with a month long youth expedition, like many of us he got the bug!. 

Since then he has paddled and guided in many parts of the UK.

Like many paddlers from the Isle of Man - he is quick with a PB of under 14hrs for the 115km IM solo circumnavigation. 

​

It will be great to have him along with us again on a Greenland expedition in 2025.
