Over deze podcast

Do you work for the emergency services or front-line NHS?

It’s not easy, is it? Every day we can be the focus of people’s attacks – verbal or otherwise. How many times have you heard ‘I pay your wages’.

The culture of your organisation can also be a challenge – red tape, bullying, or traumatic incidents, the list goes on.

I’m Frank. I was a police officer for 16 years service. I now work on a variety of projects for my local community that includes running a bereavement peer support group.

And I’m Tori, I was a police officer for 23 years. I am now a qualified counsellor and outdoor therapist in private practice.

The Beyond the Blue Light Podcast is a show aimed at helping people like us who’ve experienced working on the front line.

Every two weeks we’ll be sharing real-life stories, and practical advice to support your mental welbeing.
