OUR BPA YEAR 2025 🤩

We have had the opportunity to work with some wonderful people over the last year and have delivered BPA training all over the place! Here are some of our highlights:


BPA Training for Universities:

Through a combination of face to face & online lectures and culminating in a series of practical sessions, we have delivered BPA training to over 150 university students each at various stages in their academic journeys. If the students that we have worked with this year represent the future of forensic science, then it is in safe hands 🤩.



Level 2/Basic Training Course:

We trained representatives from several UK police forces including City of London, Thames Valley and Lancashire as well as university & forensic practitioners. Our next course will be held at the amazing UK Resilience Academy near York: 2-6 March 2026. This is one of our favourite courses where we see students build their BPA knowledge and confidence over 5 days. We can't wait to meet the next cohort! You can book your place here: https://www.spattered.co.uk/book-level2-bpa



BPA for Crime Scene Professionals:

In this 1-day training course, which we delivered all over the country, participants including from City of London, Guernsey, Thames Valley Police, the South West Consortium of forces, Bradford University, & overseas learnt how to recognise bloodstain patterns, make better decisions about stain selection for DNA analysis and build a better understanding of the value that BPA can bring to crime scene investigation. If you are interested in bringing this training to your CSI's in 2026, check out our highlights video below and drop us a message: team@spattered.co.uk.



Then there was CrimeCon, flyball, charity events, conferences, podcasts and tv appearances ... too many to talk about here, but you can catch up with all of it on our instagram, Linked In or Facebook pages (@spattered).


 

If we have had the opportunity to meet, collaborate or work with you over the last year, we want you to know that it has been a privilege and we have loved every minute.

Thank you for a brilliant year!


... and of course, we can't go without sharing our fave Christmas Joke! 😂 Happy Christmas!
