Falconer Laura
If you have ever visited Go Active Falconry, you know that Simon and his team provide the hands on experience of seeing these beautiful birds, but what you might not know is that behind the scenes, there's someone working to ensure every aspect of your visit runs smoothly. That person is Falconer Laura.
Laura takes care of all the operational aspects of the business and is often who you will speak to on the end of the phone when booking your experience.
Laura's attention to detail is also evident in the way she manages the daily schedule making sure everyone has a personalised experience. This requires excellent organisational skills, as she needs to coordinate with other staff members to create a seamless experience for all visitors.
Falconer Theo
Falconer Theo is the youngest member of the falconry team, and Laura and Simons son. He started working with the birds at 4 years of age and as you can see, he is the cheeky chappy in the team, always providing the entertainment in the weekend flying displays.
Theo has his own little owl called Blu, but is also at home handling and flying the hawks and some of the other larger birds, when he has time after school and other hobbies.
