A Carmarthenshire man who worked for Ross-on-Wye based PGL has returned to Wales to take on his dream role in charge of Oakwood Theme Park.

Originally from Ammanford, Phil Verbinnen attended Amman Valley School before joining PGL - Europe’s largest provider of children’s residential activity holidays. Phil spent 12 years working at their various sites throughout the UK and France; most recently as operations manager at PGL’s site in Surrey; one of the largest activity centres in the UK.

“I am thrilled to be taking on the challenge of leading Oakwood Theme Park in what promises to be an incredibly exciting year ahead, not least with the forthcoming 20th anniversary of Megafobia, but also the continued investment across the park,” said Phil.
