After an early start (and fantastic directions from my host Colin - who walked me to the station and put me on the train) I arrived at the Child Abuse and Paedophile Unit at Cobalt House, Vauxhall. It was the first time I actually got to "flash my badge" (at reception to prove who I was). I was met by Sally Gee (a DS) who took me through the unit's various "intelligence" data bases' which was very interesting. Sally then introduced me to "the crew" of the Paedophile Unit and we traded a few stories - I was very interested to learn about their "proactive" initiatives that they are using with the Internet (can't tell you any more I'm afraid - it's classified information). I then ventured up to another agency - CEOP (Child Exploitation Online Protection) and met up with the team leader, Lew, who gave me a run down on his role and their involvement with the global task group - which was something I was not aware. So I had a very fruitful vocational day and I even managed to find my way back to my hosts without incident.
