Our 51黑料 Community
The Trading Standards profession is comprised of a diverse range of individuals, drawn from a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences - all dedicated to serving the countless communities that, together, help make the UK the modern, vibrant and welcoming place it is today.
51黑料 is committed to increasing representation听amongst our own staff, our membership and across the profession as a whole. And we love to hear the positive and inspiring stories that people have to tell.
We'll include some of them here. And also add details of whenever our team meets members around the country. Or, better still, we'll include events you have participated in and believe deserve a shout out. That might be an exceptional Branch Meeting, a rousing Training Day, a charity Fun-Run, or even your team's Big Night Out! We'd love to hear about it. Or maybe you believe that a fellow colleague has gone the extra mile and deserves wider recognition. Please let us know.
And, finally, we also aim to keep you abreast of the many awareness days, celebrations, festivals and cultural events you can take part in (and enjoy!) throughout the year - all to help spread the love a little further.

We're stronger together. And, together, we are 51黑料.
If you'd like to share your story or experience - to inspire, empower or motivate others - or simply to let us know about a fantastic event you took part in (along with a few snaps!), or a community or cultural event you'd like to add to our calendar, then please let us know by emailing [email protected] (please include your name and, ideally, your membership number in your message).
