In 2019 Jo became the first woman to paddleboard 162 miles coast to coast from Liverpool to Goole picking up litter and raising money for charity.

A film about her adventure called 'Brave Enough - A Journey Home to Joy' documents not only the physical journey across the country but also Jo’s personal experience of the menopause, grief and anxiety.
