With over 20 years in the industry – 13 Managing Keswick Climbing Wall before it’s closure in October 2008 – Jason joins Alastair, who has outdoor experiences from his careers in teaching, the RAF and 18 months working at the former Keswick Climbing Wall.
The pair live for the outdoors and are very enthusiastic in introducing others to the thrills and spills of Adventurous Activities.
In their spare time (what little these ‘workoholics’ have) you may find them in the mountains in pursuit of that ultimate thrill. Jason has a keen interest in all aspects of mountaineering , whilst Alastair may be spotted on one of the many advanced whitewater rivers throughout the UK in his kayak, or wild camping in the hills with his family.
Both Jason and Alastair have a keen sense of humour and high levels of professionalism – which are essential parts of their vast outdoor toolkit. All of the groups that come and experience our activities in the beautiful Lake District National Park are sad to leave, particularly if they have spent all day throwing sticks for Floss, the OCD dog!
Speak to either of them on the telephone and you will almost see the smiles on their faces that is a tell-tale sign that they love their jobs much more than most – who wouldn’t love to play all day?
Their personalities are magnets to others in the industry and as such our extended team are all hand selected to deliver your activities in the same fun filled, high quality professional way that we do.
