"Russell is a great speaker, presenting at major events, but equally comfortable with smaller grass-roots gathering.  with a first class team, the Continuity Forum has evolved over the years and is, in my humble opinion, a great source of knowledge for all business continuity professionals of all grades and experience. I thoroughly recommend their work"

MG - Security and General Consulting Services 

 

"Under the Civil Contingencies Act our Authority has the duty to promote business continuity in the borough. This was not something we had any experience of, and we were very wary from the start of our ability to deliver something suitable.  Sara and the team were brilliant and took care of nearly everything, even when our council elader pulled out at the last minute she coped. The Forum made a difficult job look easy. Not only that, but it worked out cheaper than doing it in-house and the feedback scores the day got were brilliant."

"The Forums experience in the field of BC & Crisis Management is second to none. Their knowledge, understanding and input to the various BC Standards has been highly respected. The address book and list of key contacts in these fields is impressive, to say the least. What they have brought to this discipline is one of the reasons why so many companies (large & small) have been taking BCMS more seriously.

 

CF events are always popular, well planned, with thought provoking agendas, and great value. Highly recommended"
