I’m Lottie Oatts, originally from Scotland but now based in Wanaka. Having spent winters in the French Alps, where my love of skiing first grew, to travelling far flung places as well as the home hills and lochs of Scotland – I’ve always felt at home in the outdoors, whether that’s skiing, hiking, camping, or getting into a freezing body of water! I’m passionate about ensuring everyone has access to these natural spaces for years to come.
I resonate with the mission of POW, advocating for our climate at policy level and providing education for our community. I believe that building connection and understanding in the outdoor community is crucial for protecting the places we love.
