Her sessions are interactive, inclusive, and always focused on building the knowledge and resilience needed to navigate complex or high-pressure situations.

Jude’s testimonials.

‘Jude was amazing, she had so much knowledge and insight. She was really friendly and approachable but was able to make the severity of the content very clear in a
professional manner without it coming across too overwhelming or pushy. The way she made it a group-based session led by people’s lived experiences and tailoring it to our daily work load was extremely helpful so I feel able to directly apply it if the situation presents itself.’

This 4 days IKON training was excellent. The restraint techniques were perfectly shown, explained and we had plenty of time to practice them. They are both safe (for the person restrained and ourselves) and adequate for our job. The legal aspect of our actions was also taught, which is an excellent point as many security officers are not fully aware of the implication of restraining/removing someone from the premises. The importance of a good report writing was also emphasized, with what elements to put in it. At last the trainer (Trevor) and his trainee (Jude) were fantastic. They were very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. They made us feel at ease and confident in what we are doing.

The best part is seeing people realise they can handle situations they once found daunting.’
