About us

Picture
Co-founders of Outside the Box, Danielle and Zoe, both try to spend more time outdoors than in, knowing first hand the huge benefits that can bring.  They were drawn to create Outside the Box as they were fed up of experiencing and hearing how people didn't tick the right boxes to access helpful services. It was a passion to be able to provide inspiration and activities for everyone which brought them here.
Danielle has fond memories of camping in the Lake District as a child and spending time by the sea in Cornwall, which sparked her love of walking, appreciating the fresh air and taking energy from the sea. She loves Devon because there is coast as well as hills on her doorstep to discover and get lost in, it inspires her creativity and is a slower pace of life than the Bristol area she grew up in. Danielle's professional background is in the arts, support work, conservation and nature and wellbeing.
Zoe grew up playing on the beach and romping across Dartmoor in search of 'Letterboxes,' a hobby which later led to Ten Tors and a fondness for Geocaching. She loves her home county of Devon for its mixture of wild moor, rugged coast and dappled woodland. Zoe's professional background is in the arts, education, coaching, mental health, conservation and holistic therapies.
