Dany Duncan

Altruistic, warm, even-tempered some would even say loving; these are all phrases that have in the past been used to describe our illustrious leader Mr Duncan. Prior to ‘the accident’ he was indeed hailed by many to have the most extensive collection of witty quips this side of the Tamar. The resulting phobia of cheese and tattooed dwarves has, however, enabled him to concentrate on building the business into the success it is today.

Simon Clark

Simon Clark

When not utilising his years of experience in the outdoor education industry managing the centre at Swanpool he can be found charming nuisance flies from neighbours kitchens with his uncanny knack for imitating the song of mythical birds.

Martin Schneeburger

Martin Schneeberger

He is easy to miss and indeed to trip over due to his diminutive physique. As a result he has also proved to be the most resilient member of the team as of course you would when constantly being trodden on by normal sized humans. He came to us after a short stint working as Upsy Daisy’s stunt double on ‘in the night garden’ but had to resign when Iggle Piggle wrongly accused him of damaging the Ninky Nonk in a joy riding incident.

Tony Whittle

Tony Whittle

 

Tony’s is one of those irritating people with a natural flare for watersports. When not impressing the general public with supernatural talents he can be found expressing his joy for life in general through the medium of modern dance.

Matt Gigg

Matt Gigg

Known to the rest of the team as the ‘Ginger Ninja’ Matt moves at tremendous speed when needed. His other interests are cheese watching and coat hanger tracking both of which he does in the confines of his own home, Pendenis Castle.

Ala Malinder

Ala Malinder

 

Ala has, for the last four years, been living in an Asda shopping trolley on the outskirts of Penryn. Despite the lack of creature comforts, she has managed to maintain a rigorous training regime and has recently received confirmation of her place on the British Olympic team for 2012. She is, however, still struggling to find a sponsor to support her campaign partly due to the fact no one has ever heard of competitive bubble chasing.

Michelle Douglas

Michelle is the level-headed one who looks after the admin of our quaint seaside office as well as being a rep and instructor. She mops the noses of all the other instructors and is awaiting formal honours from the Palace for services to the prevention of Senior Management Tantrum Syndrome.

Rob Currie

Rob Currie

Rob has recently been recognised by Lord Duncan of Mylor for his efforts during the 2010 ferret uprising. He single- handedly diverted the angry stream of rodents into the factory where as I’m sure you are aware the rebellion was crushed using nothing more than a large stick of celery and a smattering of nasal discharge. Rob is still adjusting to his new position as head of moral at Elemental UK and is intending to use his new found notoriety to publicise Elementals ‘Kids Club’ in the run up to next summer season.

Will Hellier

Will Hellier

Known for his false limp and strange dress sense, Will is generally ignored by most due to the bizarre pitch of his voice. When not at the centre Will can often be found digging tiny holes in the flower beds of local parks in which to hide his extensive collection of children’s socks.
