More than Circus Skills.
 

 

Circus Stars is run by Wez Swain.

Wez Swain offers more than just highly advanced Circus Skills Tuition.

 

Over the last 5 years Wez has been involved with many projects and groups.

 

Jamboree.

2 years ago Wez was selected to train and lead a unit of 40 Scouts to the 22nd World Scout Jamboree in Sweden. During August 2011, the Cornish Unit attended this camp along with 38000 other Scouts from 146 different counties. This was truly an eye opening and life changing adventure for us all.

 

Fundraising.

During that time he has helped these 36 scouts and 4 leaders raise over £90'000! Some of which was to provide all scouts to show their Cornish pride by each wearing a Cornish Kilt!

 

Scouting.

For his own group, Torpoint Scouts, in the last 3 years he has taken them to Switzerland twice and helped raise over £8'000 to support these adventures.

 

Guiding.

As well as Scouting Wez has supported many Girl Guiding events for local and county events. He’s also been involved with South West regional and even UK Guiding events.

 

Walking.

Wez has walked the entire South West Coastal Path. This 630 mile walk was completed in 3 stages taking just 28 days! This walk alone raised £2'200! During the entire walk Wez survived on a diet of only Pasties! This inspired the next entry...

 

Writing.

Wez has 2 books in print.

‘The Power of a Pasty’

This is an adventure diary of Wez's walk of the South West Coastal Path. The walk starts at Brownsea Island in Dorset, heads West to Lands End, then back up to Minehead in Somerset. Available for £5 through Wez.

 

The Rainy Day

This is a Children’s book written in both English and Kernewek (Cornish). It can be bought from Wez or Direct from

Eating.

For fun Wez completed an 'Alphabet Diet' a diet for 26 days only eating foods which began with that days letter, i.e., day one: apples, aubergine... day 26: Zucchini

 

Breaking.

Wez has been unlucky enough to have had two hospitalizations, one involving breaking both bones in his lower right leg and one falling 40 feet whilst rock climbing in the Dewerstone on Dartmoor. This made front page news of the Evening Hearld.

 

Travelling

Over the last 10 years Wez has taught over 20 different outdoor pursuits. These have ranged from climbing to fencing, kayaking to archery. He has also visited, travelled and worked in 11 different countries.

 

And in the words of Wez,

"If I can do all of these things, there is nothing stopping anyone achieving their dream. If you’re prepared to work hard, ANYTHING is possible.

Just believe in yourself!"
