WideWorld launched in May 2009 to deliver breathtaking words and pictures to a growing band of adventurers, armchair explorers, travellers and outdoor sport enthusiasts. Whether we're getting our hands dirty with extreme TV adventurer Bear Grylls, talking surf spots with Kelly Slater, finding out what we need to do in order to hurtle down whitewater rapids in a kayak, learning how to cook decent grub over a campfire or discovering why there are so many precociously young people trying to sail across the ocean, we're relaying all this good stuff to you on a daily basis.
WideWorld is proudly brought to you by Outlaw Publishing, a company set up by British journalists Ed Chipperfield and Alex Hannaford, and by design guru, Miles Jepson, so that we look somewhat professional. We're sure you agree that we do.
We like to bring you news and gear reviews, plus in-depth features, interviews and advice on a regular basis – penned by a dedicated and (mostly) attractive team of freelance writers and photographers. We also enjoy fantastic relationships with a variety of PRs who tell us about great new books, gear or clothes they think you'd like to buy.
Want to contact someone? Go ahead. Make our day.
Editorial
Ed Chipperfield – Over the past 13 years, Ed, who is based in Oxford, England, has been attacked by dolphins in the Red Sea, ridden bulls in Louisiana and posed for photos in a bath filled with rattlesnakes. He’s a keen climber, canoeist and camper who has yet to finish off his dream list of bagging all Arctic nations. It’s now just Greenland for the clean sweep. You can reach him by phone on +44 (0)7739 516 264 or email at ed@wideworldmag.com
Alex Hannaford – Alex has been a jobbing hack for 13 years too, during which time he has been held up by vigilantes in Nigeria, paddleboarded next to a 12-foot alligator and befriended a serial killer on death row. He loves hiking, kayaking and swimming in rivers and he learned to surf last summer but would now like to hone his, er, skills. You can contact Alex in the USA on 00 1 214 755 2539 or on a UK number (as long as you remember the time difference) 0207 193 5602 . Alternatively, email him at alex@wideworldmag.com
Design and Art Direction and advertising / business queries
Miles Jepson – Miles loves scrambling in British hedgerows for wild food. He doesn't like flying much so is inadvertently our biggest eco-warrior here at WideWorld. He once re-branded the pop star Jamelia and his design skills are second to none. You can contact Miles by calling +44 (0) 7941 563 688 or emailing him at: miles@wideworldmag.com
