OUR TEAM

Sam was the very first instructor we brought on board many years ago and we've yet to find an activity he hasn’t aced. He’s particularly experienced at working with people with additional support needs and runs our ASN Club and Wednesday Club. He now helps to lead our team from the front and is a great example and help to all of our new instructors.

A mad cyclist, if you see someone speeding past you at Willowgate, give him a wave because it’s probably Sam.

Our very own admin-receptionist extraordinaire has been with us over 4 years and can be found behind her desk smiling, sorting out the customers' every need and keeping us all in check. Most mornings she braves the cold and goes open water swimming in our lagoon, before getting warmed up and settling in for the day’s work in reception. Sometimes she will even get roped into helping run a shelter build or team challenge session, which she is more than happy to do because, like everyone else who works here, she loves the outdoors. Val is the warm welcoming face every organisation needs!

You'll see Bob all over Willowgate; either in his tractor, helping a fisherman, fixing something we've broken or building us something new!

Bob is an experienced groundskeeper, gamesman and fisherman and we're very fortunate to have him as part of our team. Always happy to help out and a dab hand at almost anything, you'll never see Bob without his smile or quick wit!

Stu is one of our most experienced team members. He is as Scottish as they come and has all the Scottish phrases to boot. He likes to show people around Perth on our river tours, is a whiz at bushcraft during our survival days and is happy to share his knowledge on our 5 week kayaking courses. A lovely fella, you’ll appreciate his banter.
