Over the last three days Hebridean Pursuits Ltd have been hosting a British Rock and Water Association Coasteering Skills Course and a Surf Lifesaving GB Coasteering Safety and Rescue Award. The course was based out of Oban. Steve Bowens of H20 Training worked alongside Andy Spink to facilitate a varied and exciting program of skills required to work with coasteering clients and manage and implement rescues. The water was warm which complimented the fresh snow on the hills nicely. Everyone passed the robust yet realistic SLSGB Certificated Award assessment and with much swimming, towing, rescuing under their belts all were happy to have passed. Well done one and all!
The next open course will be in Oban in spring and again on November 1st and 2nd 2014. Contact hebpursuit@aol.com or call us on 01631720002 for more details and booking. Hebridean Pursuits also offer site specific training and Technical Advice for companies and organisations who work or are considering working in this fun, educational and exciting environment of coasteering.
