What else do I need to know?
Seniors have a special uniform that they can wear. As everyone wears the same thing they feel as though they belong. However nobody is excluded because they do not have the right clothes. That uniform is dark trousers and shoes and a Navy Blue jumper.

This covers aspects such as: Company Registration with the National Organisation; Insurance Cover for all activities; Staff Training; Staff Disclosure checks; Staff Registration; First Aid Cover; and Equipment. We do not ask for payment until the new Recruit is sure he wishes to stay with the Company.
