"Having operated for many years in both the counter terrorism and organised crime arenas I felt I had an understanding of mans capacity to inflict pain on othersDuring the last number of years however I have witnessed the impact on staff of dealing face to face with the horrors of child abuse.

Case studies and recent research are combined with practical tools and a discussion of the complex issues which face those of us working in organisations, to demonstrate how we can minimise the impact of trauma on the organisation itself and its people." - Alison Dunn, Head of Treatment Services, Occupational Health, Transport for London, UK
