We’ve also had the privilege of working with some of the UK’s most respected trainers too. So you can be safe in the knowledge that you will get the best training available.

Our training is also legally compliant with all of the UK’s common and statute law, including the Human Rights Act and children’s legislation. This means that you will be delivering legally defensible training.

It is also health and safety compliant and underpinned by competent and thorough assessments of risk.

That helps us manage the risks associated with the training and operational use of physical force. Such as the risk of a restraint related death due to positional asphyxia and the risk of injury to the person being restrained as well as staff doing the restraint.

This means that you are less likely to get in trouble if you follow our simple and proven step by step methods.

We also offer online training too in areas such as the law and risks associated with physical intervention, handcuffing and risk assessment training, to name a few.

Our mission is to help you become the best trainer you can be by increasing your competence and reducing your liability.
