The Redback Company – Meet the Ambassadors

The Redback Company is lucky to work with two great Brand Ambassadors.  Glen Steyn and Piers Hallihan.

Glen Steyn (@glen.steyn)

Glen is a former Royal Marine and member of the Special Forces Support Group.  Last year he, and another Royal Marine, walked the length of the Orange River in Africa completely unsupported.  A journey of 2500 km over 97 days.

Glen is currently working with Veterans For Wildlife on anti-poaching operations and Ranger training in South Africa and Namibia.  

Glen believes passionately in conservation and is dedicated to using his skills and training to end poaching in Africa.

When he isn’t treating the wildlife to his supermodel good looks he lives in Johannesburg in his native South Africa.

Piers Hallihan (@speleotrog)

Joining Glen is our second Brand Ambassador Piers Hallihan.  

Piers is a consummate outdoorsman.  Regularly to be found on top of or under the Welsh Hills as a keen mountaineer and caving enthusiast.  Piers has been a Scout Leader since the mid-90s having joined as a youth in the early-80s. As a Scout Mountain Leader, he ensures that a new generation of young people is learning to love the outdoors.

He is also a long-standing member of South & Mid Wales Cave Rescue Team (http://smwcrt.org/j32/), using his caving skills to help others.

When he is not out and about being an outdoor god, Piers loves to spend time with his wife and children.  He is also an accomplished photographer (check out his work at his website) and plays a mean trombone!

Piers says:

“Having spent time in the mountains with Ben and the Explorers who inspired the Redback brand, I’m flattered to be invited onto the team. Redback has a great ethos, some awesome product lines and some brilliant ideas for the future!”

The Redback Company is looking forward to working with Piers, alongside Glen, to develop new products, put prototypes through the wringer, and show why Redback Company products are worth buying.
