Off Course (S4 E5) Navigating the seas: Sophie Longhurst's journey
Off Course: a sideways look at life at sea
During this season of Off Course, we are speaking with seafarers who have a real focus on the environment and sustainability.
Helen Kelly talks to Sophie Longhurst, a Deck officer cadet aboard the cruise ship Enchanted Princess.
Sophie shares her experiences from training and life at sea, detailing her path into the maritime industry.
The discussion highlights the supportive community she has discovered and explores her future career aspirations. A key part of the conversation focuses on maritime sustainability, covering current initiatives and the industry's drive to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
To find out more information about the pre-cadetship Sophie completed, search, Brockenhurst College.
