Channel UK Events CIC
Here at Channel Events our aim is to run engaging and accessible lifestyle events that drive lifelong, self-led participation in physical activity in the outdoors. We are driven by the belief and research that regular physical activity in the outdoor environment has massive physical and mental health benefits. We deliver outdoor events, not only because they are an awesome thing for you to participate in but because it is about much more than just event day, it’s a lifestyle choice. Setting yourself a goal which then leads to regular physical activity, enjoying the outdoors, joining clubs, meeting new people and training for the event makes positive changes in peoples lives. From the moment you enter one of our events you’ve made a lifestyle choice and what a great choice you’ve made, we look forward to seeing you on the start line!
Channel UK Events CIC is a Community Interest Company (CIC) incorporated in October 2018 – A community interest company is a business with primary social objectives whose surpluses are principally reinvested for that purpose in the business or in the community. Channel Events has always been and will continue to be not-for-profit, firstly as a project of Channel Adventure and now as its own entity.
Dan Brice heads up Channel Events and is completely passionate about every event we organise and deliver. Dan came to the Channel Group 3 years ago bringing the successful Quantock Quake with him, this event is now the finale of The Triple! Through Dan’s passion and drive we are delighted to have incorporated Channel Events as a CIC and look forward to the trail ahead!
Our events could not happen without the amazing support of our Volunteer Tribe! We are very grateful to every single one of them for donating their time to help us deliver fantastic events for you. We do of course look after them as best we can with social events, merchandise, breakfast and drinks on event days. Interested in giving something back to a sport you love, or just have some free time? We are always looking for more volunteers to join the tribe!
Be a warrior by entering an event, become one of the tribe or both!
We’d love to meet you

Exmoor Distillery Ltd
At Exmoor Distillery, we produce exceptional spirits from raw materials with passion, place and purpose. Nestled on the southern gateway to the breathtaking Exmoor National Park in Dulverton, Somerset, our independent, family-run distillery crafts premium gins, rums and vodka that capture the wild beauty of the South West and reflect our commitment to quality over quantity.
Founded in 2017 by John and Nicola Smith, Exmoor Distillery grew from a lifelong dream shared over three decades of travel, conversation and a mutual love for fine spirits. After years of sampling the world’s finest spirits, they realised there was something missing — a spirit that married exceptional craftsmanship with a true sense of place. That realisation sparked a bold ambition: to create spirits that could rival the best in the world, yet be unmistakably rooted in the rugged landscape they call home.
Our distillery is deeply connected to the land. We draw pure water from the Exmoor Aquifer, a unique local source, and use it throughout fermentation, distillation and proofing to give our spirits a distinctly smooth and natural profile — an authentic expression you won’t find anywhere else.
Craftsmanship with a Personal Touch
At the heart of Exmoor Distillery is true artisan craft. Each spirit is meticulously produced on-site, with traditional hand-made care matched with a modern distillation precision. This attention to detail means every bottle leaving our facility embodies our exacting standards — from carefully selected botanicals in our gins to the rich, flavour-forward barrels in our rum production.
Our flagship Northmoor Gin — sets the tone for what we do: vibrant, aromatic spirits with complex yet balanced character. Since then, we’ve expanded our repertoire to include several expressions, from Navy strength gins to barrel-aged rums and smooth botanical vodka, each showcasing our commitment to innovation without compromise.
Awards and Recognition
Our spirits have earned international acclaim, including prestigious accolades at competitions such as the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, where our gins have taken home both gold and double gold medals. These honours are testament not only to our craft but to the dedication and passion we pour into every stage of production.
A Warm Welcome
Exmoor Distillery is more than a producer of fine spirits — it’s a destination. We welcome visitors year-round for tours and tastings, sharing the story behind each bottle and offering a behind-the-scenes look at how our spirits come to life. Whether you’re exploring Exmoor or simply appreciate artisan craft spirits, a visit offers a warm welcome and an unforgettable experience.
Our Promise
From the first sip to the final drop, our promise is to deliver spirits that reflect excellence and authenticity.

Nomad Architecture
Nomad Architecture was established with the goal of exploring the word ‘home’. Our home is Exmoor, its extraordinary landscapes and its surrounding villages and towns.
Good architecture comes from understanding the people and places that make our work possible. We think a home can only be fully understood by experiencing it mindfully and seeing how its occupants use and shape it to make it their own. By exploring these ideas, we learn what ‘home’ means to our clients.
We appreciate how our surroundings can greatly impact our well-being and enjoyment of a space. From the start of the design process, we prioritize people and strive to bring joy to the places we create. Whether it’s an old or new home, we want to help you discover its unique identity.

Elsworthy – the Hill farm Experience
Discover farm regeneration on the hills of Exmoor.
Learn how a hill farm can adapt to climate change through farming practices that respect both nature and animals.
A family hill farm at the door of Exmoor National Park which started in 2005 with traditional and very friendly English Longhorns. A great place to discover a different way of farming with animals, during your visit on Exmoor.
Elsworthy farm is an educational place to learn about regenerative farming and cattle whispering.
Climate issues have taken the world by storm, but here regeneration has taken on a gentle life of its own: hedges are looking a little less geometrical, fields go back to medieval times with their funny shapes cut out of the original dense Exmoor forest.
At Elsworthy, animal welfare is at the core of our work and we have tried and developed a different way based on Rosamund Young’s idea of cattle families. The Longhorn families remain in their natural grouping. They are allowed to roam areas they chose to. Amazing things happen as a result.
