Building relationships in Redbridge

"The following the feedback is in regards to your general interactions with the students today and for every talk that you do at the college.

[The SSO] has exceptional communication skills which has profoundly impacted students in a positive manner. His friendly demeanour fosters trust and openness among students and staff, creating a welcoming environment within the college community. He readily offers information and advice but if unsure, will ensure that he collects and delivers an in-depth response.

Through engaging workshops, he shares invaluable information on personal safety, conflict resolution, the law and community policing, empowering students with essential life skills. His approachability and dedication contribute significantly to building strong relationships between the metropolitan police and young people."
