This is my first blog entry for MK Citizen so I better start by introducing myself. I have been in Milton Keynes for nearly two years now and cannot believe that length of time has passed already.
I arrived here from North Yorkshire where I was responsible for fraud and special investigations and before that I was with Wiltshire trading standards, so I have been about a bit!
Since arriving in MK I have been instrumental in a few changes and we still have much work to do before I am completely satisfied with the way we operate.
We are now much more outcome focussed which is a far better use of resources.
Some of you may not know that the scope of MK trading standards also covers animal health and animal control, the latter recently receiving a lot of media attention for dealing with cockroaches.
Anyway that is more than enough of an intro for now. Over the coming weeks and months I will tell you what we are up to in trading standards, some of which is going to be really radical and dynamic so please, watch this space!
