Bob Bradshaw

Bob, having recently retired from the fire service is currently undertaking his formal teaching qualifications, and has recently become a qualified auditor, all of which make him sound really interesting! He is though, and you will always hear Bob before you see him.

Mick Goldstone

Mick Goldstone:

Mick, having retired from the fire service a few years ago now, it seems to like to spend more time in France on holiday than working! Which is an envious position to be in. Mick conducts fire risk assessments and conducts evacuation drills with clients, and has even been know to take the odd training session. If Mick ever comes to your company, his next holiday will not be far off.

As a former Coldstream Guardsman Rick has a similar background to Brian, although their paths did not cross, Rick has also worked within the Airbus project as a commercial fire-fighter before specialising in the training arena. Rick is passionate about Wales and enjoys return trips to his homeland whenever he can.

Tony Stoddart

Tony Stoddart:

Tony, formerly of Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service is a mountain bike leader, and has the unenviable task of travelling the world in charge of people on bikes. Recently he has been to Vietnam and Greece, with more exotic trips planned. When Tony turns up on your door step walking funny, chances are he has spent the last week in the saddle. In typical Cumbrian fashion, Tony is very laid back and nothing is ever a problem, which we like a lot.
