We have worked in partnership with PSP Ltd to deliver self-defence classes for women across Barking and Dagenham, helping participants build confidence, develop personal safety skills, and feel more empowered in their everyday lives. We have also delivered conflict management courses, equipping individuals with practical techniques to manage challenging situations, de-escalate conflict, and promote safer environments within their communities.

We have worked in partnership with Safer Handling International, assisting in the delivery of physical skills training sessions within school settings. These sessions focused on equipping school staff with practical skills and techniques to safely manage challenging situations, promote positive behaviour, reduce risks, and maintain a safe and supportive learning environment for both staff and pupils.

We have worked in partnership with Safer London Project to deliver personal safety training, supporting the shared goal of making London a safer place for everyone. Our sessions focused on raising awareness of personal safety, building confidence, recognising potential risks, and developing practical skills to manage challenging situations. Through this work, we aim to empower individuals, promote safer communities, and contribute towards creating a safer London.

We continue to work in partnership with London South Bank University (LSBU), delivering personal safety and breakaway training to their clinical education students. Our sessions focus on equipping students with the confidence, awareness, and practical skills needed to recognise potential risks, manage challenging situations, and safely disengage from physical confrontations. This training helps prepare future healthcare professionals for real-world clinical environments, promoting personal safety, effective conflict management, and safer working practices throughout their careers.

We work in partnership with Hackney Council’s Night-Time Economy Team, supporting their night-time welfare initiatives on Friday and Saturday evenings to help create a safer and more welcoming environment for those enjoying Hackney’s nightlife. A key focus of our work is raising awareness of drink spiking, educating members of the public on recognising potential risks, taking preventative measures, and knowing where to seek help. Our team also provides free personal safety advice and assists with the distribution of essential safety resources, including free water, personal panic alarms, and phone theft prevention kits. Through this partnership, we actively contribute to reducing vulnerability, promoting safer nights out, and supporting the wellbeing of everyone who lives, works, or socialises in Hackney’s night-time economy.

We have worked in partnership with Good Shepherd Care, delivering a bespoke breakaway training session for staff at one of their care homes supporting individuals living with dementia, including those subject to Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS). The training was specifically tailored to the challenges faced within a dementia care environment, focusing on personal safety, safe disengagement techniques, and managing behaviours that may present a risk to staff or residents. A key element of the session explored the legal and ethical considerations surrounding restrictive interventions, including lawful authority, deprivation of liberty, decision-making under the Mental Capacity Act, and the principles of necessity, proportionality, and least restrictive practice. Our aim was to equip staff with the knowledge, confidence, and practical skills to manage challenging situations safely, lawfully, and compassionately, while maintaining the dignity, rights, and wellbeing of those in their care.
