Be Fearless in South Wales

About Alastair

Before joining Crimestoppers in 2019, Alastair had an exemplary career in the public sector, having served in South Wales Police for 24 years, including 3 years as Special Constable. His commitment to voluntary service also included the Territorial Army (4 years) Royal Corps of Transport.

A qualified and experienced training officer, he delivered a wide variety of police training, including IT, First Aid, Threat Risk & Harm, Officer Safety, and all aspects of Conflict Management to all ranks of police officers and police staff where appropriate.

Young People's Workshops

Fearless provides free workshops and assemblies aimed at 11-18 year olds in a school or youth setting. These can be provided both in person and virtually. All topics can be delivered in 1 hour sessions. There is NO cost for our service, as we are fully funded.

Sessions are fast paced, emotive and engaging; using a variety of media to deliver our safety messages. We are flexible and can adapt sessions to meet the needs of your young people.
