Kate Glover, Woolacombe Bay Holiday Parks

“I recently re-qualified in my FAW qualification and Kate was great! She had a mixed ability group and made sure that she had enough time for everyone. The resources were great and all equipment was clean and in working order. There was no pressure during the course and learning was natural with Kate. I would definitely use Kate again and would recommend her and her services to all of my friends and local businesses.”
