Today, we're joined by Lucy Bowden, founder of Fishing For Everyone and a true pioneer in the world of angling.

Back in 2005, Lucy launched her business when there were barely any female anglers in the UK. Tired of being the only woman on the bank, she set out to inspire others—connecting with female anglers worldwide, including April Vokey, and sharing her journey to make fishing more accessible for women.

From running an online shop selling stylish outdoor gear for women, to having an enterprise award named after her at her former school, Lucy's impact runs deep. She's worked for leading country brands including Hardy & Greys, Orvis, Barbour, and now Farlows, while also founding the Ladies Fishing Club and becoming the youngest qualified female angling coach in the UK.

Lucy's work has taken her across the globe—from New Zealand to the USA—and landed her features on national TV, radio, and major publications like Country Life, The Lady, and Fly Culture.

She even met her husband—a double world fly fishing champion—while doing the job she loves.

🎧 Tune in for a powerful episode on passion, purpose, and changing the face of fishing.

Kate Webster is the Co-Founder and Director of Deer Shed; a family-focus festival that welcomes 10,00 people to beautiful, rural Yorkshire each July. This year the festival celebrates it's 15th anniversary this summer and is widely recognised as one of the UK's best family festivals.

Kate's journey didn't start with Deer Shed; after working in London during her twenties in many aspects of the music industry including recording labels, music publishing and band management, she moved back up to the family farm in North Yorkshire to start a music services company specialising in music & digital media accountancy, which she still runs today (plus raising her 3 kids with husband and Co-Founder of the Festival, Oliver). In her spare time, she tries to enjoy as much live music as possible and is a keen Wild swimmer.

Deer Shed Festival dates July 25th – 28th July 2025
