Defining the Standard for Inclusive Excellence

Co-founder and CEO

For more than 25 years, Richard has tirelessly applied his vision, knowledge, commitment and passion for making travel accessible and inclusive – everywhere, to everyone.

Richard’s journey is a heady fusion of independent exploration across 70+ countries, and half a lifetime turning adversity to his advantage after his own life-changing personal injury. Tirelessly, he has inspired and rekindled travel ambitions for those that thought their travelling days were over and turned oft-abandoned dreams into transformational and memorable reality – regardless of how complex a person’s additional requirements are, or where in the world they want to explore.

Regarded by the UK legal profession as the country’s leading inclusive travel authority, Richard is regularly called upon to provide expert opinion to the Courts. He is also in demand to educate, enlighten and inspire the industries of travel and tourism industries across the globe. And now, as co-founder and CEO of Inclu, leads a team of the worlds leading inclusive luxury hospitality and travel experts in transforming the landscape of discovery and exploration for disabled people across the globe.

At 17, Alison sustained life-changing injuries that reshaped her future – just as they have for so many others. She understands the challenges, the pain of adjustment, and the profound journey of rebuilding a life – not only for the individual but also for their loved ones, whose lives are equally and deeply affected. Alison’s role is one of the most important in travel and hospitality today… crafting inclusive products and services with our valued partner brands and showcasing and selling them to an audience who have the ambition and resources to travel… if only we can give them trust and confidence to do so.
