Andi Derrick

GLO is Andi’s dream business, working on the beach and rivers in beautiful surroundings and meeting amazing people.  For the last 26 years Andi has worked as a foley artist in the film industry, spending all of her time in dark and dusty studios creating soundtracks for film and tv.

Everything changed in 2015, from a chance encounter on a Greek island, when Andi witnessed first-hand stand up paddleboarding. She was smitten from the get go, came back to the UK and bought her first Red paddleboard, the rest is history. Andi’s passion is teaching SUP and you will find her on the water enjoying everything to do with SUP, SUP-surf and now wing surfing, which she hopes to teach in the near future! 

A firm believer in healing energy, Andi has studied, amongst other things, a Japanese form of energy healing called Jin shin jytsui (jit-su), and knows the benefits of playing in the brilliance of nature, tapping into our natural healing abilities that she believes we all possess.

                  Here’s to being in the NOW! 🙏🙌

Sarah Metcalfe

Several years ago now, and as a now rare sight of a lone paddler, Sarah was paddling along the Goring coastline on her Red paddleboard when she saw some like minded individuals who had set up a concession on the beach. She immediately turned her board towards the shore and paddled in to meet these fellow SUPers.

Sarah has paddled for Dragon-boat and Outrigger teams in Asia and Australia, and due to her love of all sports on the water, qualified as a BSUPA Instructor and is delighted to be a part of GLO.

                  It’s the only way to GLO! 🙏🙌
