“We have a very positive working relationship with delegated services.  We have found them to be helpful, flexible and thorough as well as skilled and knowledgeable.  They have been very supportive of our work and development in relation to health and safety.  They are highly regarded by our schools and particularly in relation to their responsiveness when dealing with issues of concern or emergency situations.  We have found all members of the team to be approachable and supportive.”

“We had our HSE inspection today. I am pleased to say she rated our Risk Assessment as ‘one of the best she’s seen’, so thanks very much for the model and the look-through and suggestions. As a result, we have no actions or advice.”

“The teaching and senior leadership staff and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for delivering a superb twilight session yesterday afternoon/evening. Having spoken to a number of staff reflecting on the twilight session they felt that the delivery and execution of the session was superlative. The general consensus from the session was that all staff present came away with a tangible sense of 'risk awareness'...”

“A huge thank you to you and your team Bill, for guiding us in these difficult times – your advice has been outstanding, and I wouldn’t have known where to begin.”

“DS has an in-depth understanding of leaders’ issues and provides the information and written guidance required, often before you are aware that you need it.

They provide a wide-ranging and comprehensive set of up-to-date model policies and risk assessments. Using these allows the education and community sectors to focus more resources on educating and providing services to the community, reducing the time and resources needed, leaving school leaders with a sense that they have done more than “tick the boxes”.

The reassuring telephone response to urgent issues has been incredible.”
