The British Transport Police (BTP) has come up with a novel new training ground for its canine comrades: Legoland Windsor.

The sniffer dogs are to visit the tourist attraction, out of season, as part of their patrol training, Police Review reports.

The BTP said Legoland's train and railway tracks would help the dogs practise in a realistic setting before going on patrol. The tourist attraction opened last weekend for the start of its spring season.

IRS is conducting a survey on line manager training and would greatly appreciate your help. Line managers take lead or shared responsibility for people management in 90% of organisations, yet line manager training in areas such as absence management, appraisals and recruitment is often poorly attended and - according to half the HR respondents in the IRS Line managers’ role in people management 2008 survey - inadequate. Taking part will entitle you to a complimentary copy of the report once it is completed and a free copy of the 2008 IRS Line managers’ role in people management report which is available to download immediately on completion of the survey.
