BASIC WEAPONS AWARENESS & RECOGNITION COURSE
It is a fact that violence on our streets and in society in general is at an all time high fuelled by an ever growing knife and weapons culture.
Michael Bruce is at the forefront of training and as such has taken the worlds first fully accredited basic Weapons Awareness and Recognition training programme. The programme was structured and directed by a company who are well known in policing circles having presented, for example, at the Police Federation Conferences, Home Office POLSA Conferences and having published the world renowned Manual of Concealed Weapons. Michael is now one of the first (there are only 10) nationally recognised and accredited ‘public’ trainers to deliver this programme.

The Course Objective:
The course is a very basic introduction to Weapons Awareness and Recognition for anyone whose role might bring them into contact with weapons. Its main function is to promote safety and to prevent injury and loss of life by getting people to ‘think differently’ about weapons. The carrying of weapons has become an issue of considerable concern over recent years and the proliferation of weapons in our towns and cities now poses a significant threat to people whose occupation or lifestyle may bring them into contact with them. The Basic Weapons Awareness & Recognition Course is not intended to teach the student the law relating to ‘Weapons’. This is due to its complexity and the breadth of legislation the trainer and the student would have to cover to do the subject justice. However, the course does show and explain the various types of weapons and includes; made, adapted, intended & disguised. The emphasis on the course is on ‘personal and public safety’. Remember that the carrying of any type of weapon in a public place or indeed anywhere without a good and valid reason is inviting trouble and is probably illegal. DO NOT PUT YOURSELF or STAFF AT RISK BY THINKING “This doesn’t apply to me!” We all have a duty of care to ourselves and each other.- Course Duration ½ day
