Three good things: people opening up adventure for all – Positive News

by Glasgow Report

2. Dwayne Fields, the first black Briton to reach the North Pole

Born in Jamaica, Dwayne Fields came to live in the UK aged six. His formative years were in inner-city London, where he became a victim of both knife and gun crime. After a life-threatening incident, Fields made the decision to change his life forever. As a child, in the forests and hills of Jamaica, he had loved nature and wildlife, and he wanted to reconnect to this part of his life. 

So, in 2010, Fields set himself a challenge: to become the first black Briton to reach the magnetic north pole. He completed the trek. Since then, he has focused on inspiring young people to explore the great outdoors. 

He now plans to take disadvantaged young people from across the UK on life-changing expeditions with #WeTwo Foundation, a charity he co-founded in 2019. 

The inaugural expedition – with 10 teenagers onboard – is planned to set sail for Antarctica in 2022, in what he says will be the world’s first carbon-negative expedition of its kind. 

Fields also promotes carbon-conscious behaviours, hence his motto: “It’s about planting seeds, not flags”.
