MY Adventure director James Howell has died in an accident while on holiday.

Muirhouse Youth Development Group (MYDG’s) Board has issued the following statement:

Over the weekend James was involved in a tragic accident and passed away. At this time we don’t know the full details and we want to provide his family and the MYA team with some time to get their head round it. Normal service will resume at MYA and we will be in touch with the best point of contact for any questions in due course.

James came to MY Adventure two years ago with over 15 years of experience in outdoor education, adventure activities and expedition leadership. He worked extensively in the UK, Asia and Africa and was a passionate believer in the power of the outdoors to change lives for the better.

Our thoughts are with James’ family and colleagues at this terribly difficult time.
