Simon McGrath is the author of Camping with Kids, which is sold in the UK, Australia and New Zealand, and is an award-winning journalist. He began his career in journalism 30 years ago and for nearly a decade was Editor of Camping & Caravanning magazine, the world’s oldest and largest circulating title for all types of camping which is published each month by The Camping and Caravanning Club. Simon is passionate about encouraging people, especially youngsters, to enjoy the great outdoors – and he feels the best way to do that is through camping. He shares that passion with his wife and their two sons who, over the years, have experienced a wide variety of enjoyable outdoor adventures and activities from rock climbing, hiking up mountains and campfire cooking to bushcraft, sailing and canoeing.
