The expansion into the 'fit for purpose' adjoining premises and additional services was described by the Directors Board as "...something the company has held off, until a time when our core specialisms are totally reliable and as such support the opportunity for a strategic diversification in services. This is exemplified by our involvement and delivery of the Society Health & Development Diploma with Liverpool schools from September 08".
