David Scourfield (Accredited member of the Outdoor Education Advisers Panel)

Dave has been Educational Visits Adviser in Rochdale for the past 20 years, and is currently also contracted to Bury Council, to provide advisory services for both. He has also delivered training across a number of neighbouring Local Authorities. Prior to that Dave was a teacher for 12 years and he has also worked in various outdoor centres instructing adventure activities. He has experience as a development tutor at a management training company in the North. Dave is committed to using the outdoors as an educational tool, using real experiences to develop understanding and learning.

Thomas Booth (Accredited member of the Outdoor Education Advisers Panel)

Tom started off at an activity centre, where he started to see the benefits of providing challenge and being outside, from there moved on to support on the Prince’s Trust Team programme working with 16-25year olds. He then moved in to one-to-one youth mentoring with 16-17year olds, before volunteering with Rochdale Youth Service delivering outdoor education including expeditions. Whilst volunteering, he met Dave and shortly after, a job came up within the team, 10 years later Tom is still there.
