The mp3 of “Change or Control? Why risk is risky” does not work in Windows Media Player. I get this error message – “Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.”

Sorted now…
Fergus’ audio of his presentation why risk is risky ends at power point slide 8 – appreciate you were recording with new app on iPod – do you intact have the rest of the talk saved? If so would be great if you could post so we can hear it/direct others to it.
Ignore previous post with spelling error –

Will see if we can sort this out tomorrow. Thanks for pointing it out.
HI Shadd, Fergus,
Is there any places available at the Glasgow/Belfast seminars as due to my university email address becoming defunct I have missed the Sheffield seminar. Would greatly appreciate it if you could grant me a place at either venue.
Paul,
Did someone get back to you? I didn’t pick up your comment until now.

I’m just getting it now too. Sorry Paul. We need a better system for sending these comments. There is a space at the part-two seminar in Belfast on the 25 June, but it is probably too late for you to try to get over for that now, and may not make as much sense not having had the chance to attend the first workshop. Apologies, but the DVD’s will be out very (very) soon! shadd
It seems to me that the link you’ve provided for ‘Change the Record’ is wrong; it takes me to a site for obtaining record checks/ CRB checks. This seems the correct site: http://www.nacro.org.uk/what-we-do/resettlement-advice-service/change-the-record/.
Thanks Bronwyn!
