Meet the Open Airists: Carenza
Been with us since she could start working; introducing climber and mountaineer Carenza!

Hi, I’m Carenza and I’ve been working at Open Air for a little over 3 years.
In the shop, you’ll find me fitting shoes or talking about the details of equipment – I’ll happily talk for hours about the finer points of climbing gear.
Outside the shop however, I am normally busy studying for university or out in the mountains. Most of my trips are based around bouldering, but I am also a keen mountaineer. I have been lucky enough to go to some incredible places, including to Sweden and Ladakh, but am just as happy climbing some gritstone closer to home.

I am excited to welcome you back into the shop now that we have reopened, and to help you prepare for your own adventures!
