This week Andy Spink and Ben Wallace have been out on Tiree working on a staff training course for the Himmat Project from Halifax. A challenging and fun week including loads of adventures including Climbing, kayaking, coasteering, hill walking, and of course surfing!
Tiree as usual was just beautiful! We missed allot of the wetter weather and saw a good share of sunshine, swell and dry rock, perfect.
Whilst we were over on Tiree, Andy Wardle and Danny Goodwin were out working for Hebridean Pursuits on another Roses Project course out at Tavool House on Mull this week with a School from Norwich.
