Jason Ramsden
Fitness Manager
Since starting my Hurlston Hall journey in 2006, I am extremely proud to have been a part of the clubs growth over these years and still feel a sense of excitement for my role within the club. I have had many different roles within the Leisure Club, but thoroughly enjoy my current role as Fitness Manager, overseeing our gym experience and making sure we are providing the best service to our members.
I am a passionate health and fitness professional, and enjoy spending much of my downtime playing golf and tennis, whilst also spending time with my family. I am a Manchester United fan with a soft spot for Everton and enjoy watching them from time to time.
Ryan Donnellan
Course Manager
I have been in the greenkeeping industry for over 16 years, gaining all the relevant qualifications and experience within this time.
​
I started my journey at Shaw Hill Golf Club before progressing into a Deputy Head Greenkeeper position at Runcorn Golf Club. Shortly after I then became Head Greenkeeper at Charnock Richard Golf Club, tasked to reinstate a course that had been closed for 5 years.
​
I took the job here as Deputy Head Greenkeeper in September 2023 before being offered the Course Manager’s position in February 2024, which I gladly accepted. I’m really looking forward to making this course great again.
​
In my spare time I manage my local semi-pro football team, Charnock Richard FC. I also enjoy spending time with the family and taking them abroad as much as possible.
Aimi Rumble
Residential Manager
Joining the Hurlston Hall family in 2015, Aimi has worked her way up becoming the caravan park manager, a position she has held for 5 years—a position she has skilfully managed for the past five years. Aimi's passion for her work is evident in her commitment to assisting individuals on their journey to owning a holiday home. Her genuine enthusiasm for creating a welcoming and memorable experience for all residential and holiday homeowners, making her an integral part of Hurlston Hall.
As Aimi continues to excel in her role and make a positive impact at Hurlston Hall, her journey is not just about managing a caravan park; it's about fostering connections, creating memories, and embracing the joy found in both work and life's simple pleasures.
Outside of Hurlston Hall Aimi enjoys spending time with her partner, son & Stepson, on days out, weekends away or summer holidays, and talking her dog on walks.
