Live Exercise

As those who attended on-line courses have expressed an interest in taking part in a “live” exercise, this will be run the day before on Sunday 28th November – to save attendees having to make two trips to London.  AND it gives a good reason to have a night in London!   The exercise will take place 2pm – 5pm and costs £50 to take part.  This will give all Super Recognisers the opportunity to take part in a realistic, law enforcement-style deployment.     The day will begin with a briefing on the “villains” and “terrorists” who need to be spotted URGENTLY.   The teams will then deploy to a busy area and try to find their targets….   Can the crime be stopped?   Will the Super Recognisers save the day?

Jack the Ripper Walk

AND for those who want a full two days, Mike, who is a published crime historian, will be running a Jack the Ripper walk from 7pm on the Sunday in Whitechapel……..   Cost is £10 per person.  Along the route, you will be presented with information about the various suspects, who are believed to be the infamous killer.  Perhaps Super Recognisers can solve the most famous unsolved crime in history??    We will finish with a drink in the Ten Bells Public House, which was used by several of the victims of the serial killer and, for those who are hungry, a curry in Brick Lane.   An entertaining evening – just watch out for anyone with a doctor’s bag and a top hat!
