After years as a GP, Hilary discovered that she could combine her love of medicine with her passion for adventure travel and physical challenge!

Following an expedition medicine course in 2005 she has accompanied treks to mountains (including Mount Kilimanjaro), desert and jungle as well as challenges on horseback and cycle.

An avid off-piste skier, she qualified in 2006 as a ski guide for the Ski Club of GB and leads holidays on and off piste for the Club. Other interests include sailing, scuba, learning languages and keeping fit for challenges such at the National Three Peaks.
