Lucy Grewcock moved to the Nene Valley on the Cambridgeshire border in the early '90s. Aged ten, she arrived kicking and screaming (quite literally) when her family upped sticks from the hills of Herefordshire. Reluctant to accept her new home at first, she slowly softened to its charms, lured by chocolate-box villages, jaw-dropping Cambridge colleges and the wild and mysterious Fens. Over the years, she has walked, cycled, paddled, swum and windsurfed her way through the county. As a writer, she delved deeper when she co-authored an award-winning book about wild places in South East England, taking the lead on the Cambridgeshire and Fens chapters. Although Lucy now lives in Sussex, her parents and sister never left East Anglia, giving her two second homes that she returns to regularly.
