Tour guide, Llechwedd Slate Caverns
I have been working as a tour guide at Llechwedd Slate Caverns for 3 years now. I initially applied for a job in the car park but was told that I talked too much and was offered a job as a tour guide instead, which I accepted and ended up loving. I like to give a fun, humorous tour but also one that gives our visitors a real understanding of what the quarrymen went through, the work and their efforts for such minimal reward.
I love what I do and I am very passionate about the slate industry. There is so much history and I strongly believe that the story of the slate industry needs to be told.
