This CPD accredited Threat Management TACCP course is typically completed as a bolt-on to the BRCGS Vulnerability Assessment for Food Fraud (VAFF) course, though it can be attended as a stand alone course. It looks at the various methodologies for risk assessing and managing threats which could be malicious or fraudulent in nature.While the BRCGS VAFF course specifically covers fraud, TACCP is not included and so this course is complimentary and gives attendees of both courses a comprehensive qualification.&nbsp;Attendees will receive an STC certificate of achievement for TACCP on successful completion of the course assignment (which is typically combined with the BRCGS VAFF assignment if attended as a bolt-on course, but can also be completed alone).A number of tools, tips and templates are provided so that attendees can confidently produce meaningful risk assessments and implement sensible and effective control measures.This course has been accredited by the CPD Accreditation Office for delivery, structure and content.By the end of this course you will:<ul style="color: rgb(var(--color_25)); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(var(--color_25));"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand TACCP &ndash; threat assessment and threat management</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Know and be able to apply the risk assessment methodologies</li></ul>

Life is hectic. Finding time out feels almost impossible. We want to pray, we want to reflect, but when we do find a snatched moment to ourselves, we remain distracted.
I've designed this space to help you reconnect with your breath, to gently stretch your body, and to listen... to the voice of your inner wisdom, and to the voice of your Beloved. 
We will meditate with scripture, we will journal, we will use creative means to listen to the Spirit.
We will sit with Love.
I hope you will come away feeling centred, refreshed and assured of your belovedness.
 Two hours, on Zoom.
"Come away with me to a quiet place"

The sessions will be shaped around the following themes this year:
October: Teresa of Avila
November: Letting Go
December: Advent / Expectant Hope
January: The Gifts of Winter Darkness
February: Love
March: Lent
April: No Session
May: Resurrection / Spring
June: TBC

July: The Gifts of Summer

August: No Session


You are invited to participate from the comfort of your own home. Ideally you'll be able to find a little space where you won't be interrupted. You might wish to ask those you share space with to help you protect this time by respecting your privacy.
All who sign up will be sent a link to the recording of the retreat which will remain live until the following session. If you would like to participate via recording, simply register for the event. It would be great if you could let me know that you won't be with us in real time.
