Great getting back to full time training after nearly a month on hold while dealing with other issues. Here is Phil tracking with TPD Vecna. He is one of my favourite dogs in terms of his temperament & working potential & is typical of the dogs we get from Craig at Vonkeble dogs

IT STOPS NOW CAMPAIGN - WHAT A COUPLE OF WEEKS! It’s been a busy fortnight, with coverage from @itvnews, Teesside Live, @TheNorthernEcho, @peterboroughtel, @Police_Oracle and @PolicingInsight helping us raise awareness of police suicide and the urgent need for change. But behind the scenes, much of our time has been spent researching officers we’ve lost to suicide. We launched with just 8 names on our Wall of Remembrance. We now have 140. And sadly, I suspect we’ve only scratched the surface. Reading their stories has been heartbreaking. They’re people with families, friends, colleagues and lives outside of the job. 🕯️ itstopsnow.co.uk/wall-of-rem…

According to The Sun, a long-serving Metropolitan Police officer in his 50s has been found dead at Kensington Police Station, just days before he was due to face misconduct proceedings after failing a workplace alcohol test. When is the government going to get a grip on the welfare crisis facing our police officers? We need greater compassion and understanding from police leaders, particularly when officers may already be struggling with their mental health or personal circumstances. Our thoughts are with his devastated family, friends and colleagues. Please sign this petition. We need to pause disciplinary proceedings: c.org/GFrwf7pYJs
