Mini bio
How it started.
Joshua grew up in Lagos, Nigeria. After moving to Scotland, learning about responsible roaming helped him feel free to explore. Walks along Edinburgh’s Union Canal and up Arthur’s Seat with friends helped start his love of the outdoors.
Making room for others.
When friends were curious about his adventures but hesitant to join in, he began thinking about the barriers they faced. He discussed a solution with his brother Enoch and co-founded Black Scottish Adventurers. Launched in 2022, the community brings people into nature and encourages them to care for it.
Recognition and storytelling.
In 2023, he won both the Overall Champion and Media/Online Walking Champion titles at the Scottish Walking Awards. His work now includes tourism films, public talks and outdoor adventures, with credits including VisitScotland’s hillwalking guide and an Interlaken tourism commission.
