‘Russ and Safer Travels were specifically chosen for the course 5 years ago, and instantly became a pivotal aspect of our safety training program, changing and evolving it from the outset. The degree of approachable professionalism he brings to the medical and security modules are recognized by participants and consistently noted as one of the outstanding elements of the course. Importantly, this consummate professional approach carries over every aspect of delivery and he is able to adapt to the needs and learning goals of our wide range of participants across varying skillsets, geographies, age groups, identities and assists in weaving in the psycho-social elements of our course into the more traditional medical and security aspects.’ – VICE Media Group.

‘Many thanks for your superb training in security awareness. The course was forward thinking with great advice and tips on personal security when travelling on business trips or holidays. Nowhere is safe in the world but your training has emphasised the important factors to consider. Thanks again for all your help.’

‘Safer Travels is a great initiative to educate young people on keeping safe and staying aware in an ever changing environment, that can place them in difficult or dangerous situations.

Knowledge is power and developing self awareness about the world around you is paramount to staying happy and healthy.  Russ Draycott and Andy Thurgood have a lifetime of experience with which to educate young people with.  Their approach is hard hitting but with the right amount of humour and gravity.

The students went away from the presentation with practical tips to stay safe and think about their well-being when out and about.  They are to be recommended for the delivery of Lifeskills programmes and PSHE.’
