Sid Sinfield Returns!

We are delighted to announce a temporary secondment from Paddle Cymru. We welcome back Sid Sinfield, a former senior instructor at the centre, who joins us as our Interim Director of Education and Training.
This appointment reflects the deepening collaboration between Plas y Brenin and Paddle Cymru. Both organisations are dedicated to elevating standards in outdoor education, coaching, and leadership. By integrating Sid’s expertise, we ensure continuity in our training provision while strengthening the multi-disciplinary approach essential to our work. We are really grateful to Paddle Cymru for seconding Sid to us.
Sid brings extensive experience in performance management, coach development, and pathway design, not to mention his love of the outdoors. His deep-rooted network across national governing bodies will be invaluable in refining our programmes and delivering safe, inspiring learning experiences. This partnership allows both organisations to share insights and align pathways, ultimately benefiting the wider outdoor community across Wales and the UK.
