Meet the Staff
With internet sales out stripping high street sales these
days it can very often be a very impersonal experience and it would sometimes
be nice to put a face or faces to the business you are dealing with online. This why
we always put a “Meet the Staff” page on our websites, that way you can feel it
is more of a personal experience when you can put a face to a name and know
that we take great delight in customer satisfaction which is why we have so
many returning customers. So please, take a minute to get to know us.
Barney
Barney the 6 year old Labrador, complete head case so he fits in well as the company mascot. He loves nothing more than to head out into the mountains and wear us all out. He can perform CPR. Usually at around 02:00 when the killer sheep on the Mountain are about to storm the tent !!! Then you get two front paws perfectly placed with 30kilos of dog bouncing up and down with pin point accuracy.

Andy Purkis
Andy Purkis. Senior Staff Instructor. He’s the one with the most hair out of all of us. Andy has a degree in educational studies and as well as being a PADI IDC Staff Instructor he also works in the Transport and Logistics Industry. Andy and I did our EFR Instructor courses together in March of 2003 not long after the introduction of the EFR program in late 2002 seeing the potential in the course programs and how they could be applied.
Dean Jones
Dean Jones. Actually, he’s probably the one with the most hair out of all of us.
