Alan, one of our founders, instructors and my father suddenly and unexpectedly left us five years ago in 2021 at the age of 62.

A great many things to a great many people, Alan was an amazing father, the greatest friend and the best of us.

Always kind, selfless and giving in the support, helping or fixing of others. Alan spent his life helping others, whether physically in his clinic or through his great wisdom and vast knowledge or for a charitable cause. He was always the one to call in a crisis and would always be there without question. His positive energy, unique wit, huge sense of humour and charm are greatly missed.

An amateur adventurer and thrill seeker in the outdoors, especially the Brecon Beacons, a martial artist, motorbike enthusiast, DIY king and dog lover.

Having spent most of his life in the pursuit of adventure, thrill seeking and calm on the mountains and in remote wilderness, especially the Brecon Beacons, it seems fitting that any money that was raised in Alan's name is for those that need it most, when in need of rescue in those hard to reach places.

On 23rd August 2026 a five year anniversary BBQ will be held in Alan's memory raising money for the amazing Brecon Mountain Rescue Team and charity.

The mountain rescue team in Brecon is a 100% volunteer led emergency service providing search, rescue and medical assistance in the most hard to reach places.

To everyone that gave in Alan's memory please accept our eternal thanks. Rest easy dad, we love and miss you everyday. Alan Clements 24/9/58 to 24/8/21 aged 62 😢

Mike from WinterHawk is raising money for Brecon Mountain Rescue until 20/09/2026 In memory of Alan on the 5th Year anniversary of losing him. Alan is one of WinterHawks founding members, lead instructors, Mikes father, best friend and the best of us.

Rest In Peace Alan

On top of an already busy time of year, the fire and rescue crews of Wales from Mid and West Wales, South Wales and North Wales Fire and Rescue crews were faced with an exceptionally high number of emergency calls and critical incident wildfires some of which were up to 7-8km wide, often happening at the same time.

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for all the hard work, hours away from home and danger you faced to keep our communities safe from harm.

Thank you 🫶🏼 # midandwestwalesfireandrescue GTACGC / MAWWFRS

We have seen a lot of cases of severe dehydration over the last month which could have easily been avoided knowing the signs and symptoms and hydrating early.

💧 Know the Signs of Dehydration 💧
Staying hydrated is one of the simplest ways to support your health, but dehydration can happen more quickly than many people realise—especially during warm weather, exercise, illness, or busy days.

🚨 Common signs and symptoms of dehydration include: • Headache • Feeling thirsty • Dry mouth and lips • Fatigue or tiredness • Dizziness or light-headedness • Muscle cramps or aches • Dark yellow urine • Difficulty concentrating • Rapid heartbeat

💙 Listen to your body. If you're feeling thirsty, don't ignore it. Aim to drink fluids regularly throughout the day, and increase your intake during hot weather or when you're more active.

⚠️ If dehydration becomes severe, symptoms can include confusion, extreme drowsiness, a very fast heartbeat, or little to no urine. Seek medical advice promptly if you or someone else develops these symptoms.

It was our pleasure and absolute joy to sponsor Morgan on his debut MTB race at the mini downhill race in the forest of dean on Sunday.
After missing any real practice sessions due to bike and technical issues he learnt a vast amount and most importantly enjoyed every minute of the extreme black run finishing unscathed and smiling. Well done Morgan 👏🏼
