Sustainable family travel
To promote sustainable family travel, whether that is for the whole trip or just one small part. All our content will feature a way that allows you to give back whilst also having an absolute ball.

Deckchair Adventures is the brainchild of Helen Dugdale, an award-winning journalist, author and founder of PR agency Scribble. Helen is passionate about travel and showing her children as much of the world for themselves before they head off on their own adventures.

Helen was inspired to launch Deckchair Adventures after spending 20 years working in the media industry writing about culture, the arts, kids content and travel. She felt there was a gap in the world that pooled together all the delights of each of these areas to encourage inspired travel.

We'll help you do your bit

But with great travels comes the impact on the environment. As a business and brand, Deckchair Adventures is dedicated to helping families lessen their impact on the planet when they go on holiday by suggesting 'real' ways to reduce their carbon footprint and give back whilst also having a ball.

The team

The Deckchair Adventures team is a group of talented and experienced travellers and writers who just happen to be parents - who want their kids to grow up as seasoned travellers and global citizens.

We're always looking for writers (of all ages) to capture what was special about their trip and tell us what they did and what inspired them to go to a certain place. We also love to hear from young travellers about what think about family holidays.

Our partners

We're looking to partner with family and media brands and cultural events who want to sit at the heart of helping families be braver and more adventurous with their holidays, while also learning more about the world through popular culture. We're also wanting to work with environmental focused brands to enable families to take a vacation that is kinder to the globe.
