A fluent Welsh speaker, Stephen is keen to promote the Welsh language, history, attractions and communities of Wales and Snowdonia in particular. Our client feedback is always valued and here's an example from one of our recent clients: Anelu Aim Higher was highly recommended to me by a friend of a family who is a retired Mountain Leader after I shared my concerns about my poor navigation skills. I was not disappointed in the slightest! Stephen made me feel at ease from the moment we had a discussion on the phone to book the 2 day Mountaineering Skills course. During the course I felt calm as he was always cool and collected. His instructions and valuable information was delivered professionally and I could clearly see that he had years of experience and knowledge. I also felt in safe hands as we followed covid procedures and practiced the safety guidelines of mountaineering at all times. Thanks to Stephen my confidence in planning and navigating a route in a safe manner has risen immensely! We had such a fun time as the group bonded well over the 2 days and were encouraged to support each other. At the end of the course we were given further knowledge and recommendations of books, websites etc. His expertise, knowledge and customer care goes above and beyond. I strongly recommend his courses and will be booking more in the near future. Thanks again Stephen! Diolch!
