Introducing Tom Newberry
Tom Newberry is one of the keenest climbers you’ll ever meet. He’s a jam-first Cornishman who’s free climbed El Cap, redpointed 8c+ sport routes and climbed E9 on Grit. Tom works as a Firefighter, and is also a qualified Expedition Leader.
A South West activist, Tom has a passion for exploration which led him to develop dozens and dozens of new routes across the region before he moved north to Sheffield. His Achilles heel is getting distracted by skiing, BASE jumping and Skyscanner. These days you'll often find Tom out combining this unique blend of skills with climbing to create ambitious adventures.
