R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
We have worked with the police a lot over the years. Several different areas and services, from video and audio training but most prominently interview training. During this time we have helped train detectives to give a better interview, be more thorough and respond appropriately to the different types of character they might encounter in…

GDPR compliance – it just makes sense
We are in the process of finalising the elements of our Data Protection Compliance in line with the new General Data Protection Regulations which come into force from May the 25th 2018. It’s one of those common sense things that should have been legislated for a long time ago: whose details are you storing, where,…

Getting carried away, (not literally).
So sorry for the last couple of posts, they were merely reflective of the quite random sort of job that sometimes lands on us! I guess I got a bit carried away with the fantastical element of it all! Meanwhile we have been operating business as usual, despite the political turmoil swirling around us. Some of…

The time Scoop…
“We have to unlock the TimeScoop”. I nod assent and lurch off in the direction of the history wing of Adhoc Towers. I am always scared of using the TimeScoop but it has been such a useful tool for so many jobs. Besides, the target – a Mr Henry Sherwin – seems quite blasé about the…
