Hi I’m Richard, I joined Cope Safety Management in 2014 having spent 24 years in the RAF as an Environmental Health Technician. I travelled the world, providing advice on subjects ranging from pest control to Occupational Health, and all subjects in between. I have over the years specialised in Occupational Hygiene most notably the monitoring of dusts, chemicals, noise and inspecting/testing local exhaust ventilation. I have an Environmental Health Degree and am fully qualified as an Occupational Hygienist. I spent two years working with a Local Authority as an Enforcement Officer, something I enjoyed!

• For a hobby I enjoy getting frustrated on a golf course or shouting at 11 players in red and white football strips (Sunderland AFC) getting frustrated.
• When I was at school I wanted to be a fighter pilot, sadly I’m as blind as a bat.
• My favourite car is anything that works. My history of purchasing cars has been very poor!
