Talk by Police Scotland

Delighted to have been joined by PC Mikey Steenson from Police Scotland recently. Mikey gave a very engaging and informative talk to our HND Legal students on crime, generally and then specifically on Hate Crime. Hugely relevant as the HNDs are studying 'Contemporary Policing' this year.

Hugely grateful to PC Steenson for his time and effort.



Talks like this are so beneficial for students and it's fabulous to be able to start these again after the horrors of the pandemic. Plenty more organised moving forward too. Watch this space!!

Trip down memory lane to a fabulous visit to HMP Barlinnie in Glasgow almost four years ago to the day. A group of our NQ Law students from Cumbernauld visited the notorious Glasgow prison.  Thinking we would be in and out in an hour, (it is a prison, after all), we spent about five hours being shown every corner of it. Various wings and halls, the kitchen area, the stores and we even had a chat with some of the inmates. It was quite a poignant day. We listened to a lot of young men who were very reflective of some of the decisions they have made which led them to being incarcerated. Interesting, especially when we look at so many Criminology based issues such as recidivism and rehabilitation.
