Welcome to
The Detective Project
Llorien and Louise have over 20 years experience between them of investigating serious crime. They worked together as detectives in CID departments in London and realised they shared a passion for encouraging children and young people to develop an interest in police investigation.
Llorien was a primary school teacher for 7 years prior to joining the police and is therefore experienced in engaging a range of young age groups. She holds a degree in Education and Literature as well as a PGCE in primary education.
Louise is experienced in youth engagement in deprived areas by promoting positive diversion activities for young people who may otherwise fall into gangs and crime. She holds a degree in Law (LLB).
Their skills, experience and enthusiasm have been combined to offer fun and informative Detective Project workshops and parties in the Essex area.

Testimonials
9th birthday party
A big thank you to Llorien who ran a FANTASTIC party for our daughter’s 9th birthday at our house. The ten girls were wholly absorbed and entertained. And it was refreshing to have such a different and unique theme for a party. The forensic suits were a big hit as take home gifts! I can’t recommend the party highly enough.
A level workshop
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for yesterday. I have caught up with a couple of students today and all of them have said how outstanding and beneficial it was. Although they all said it was fun, they also mentioned that career wise this was really beneficial! Thanks again, and I will definitely be in touch with regards to another session. Dan Regan
Best party ever!
This was the best birthday party we’ve ever held or been to. My 9yr old daughter and her friends (and younger brother) loved everything about it, from the personalized Police briefing, the stories about real crimes, the science, the crime scene, the suits and the fingerprinting and dusting. Llorien was a great mix of entertainer and educator and my impression was that she was also an inspiration for the girls’ future career aspirations. Well worth the money (and even us grown ups learned something!) Huge thanks and appreciation to Louise and Llorien for sharing their real world Police detective skills in such an age appropriate, accessible and engaging fashion.
Team building day for University of Essex
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for yesterday! We all had a great time and it was so interesting the morning just flew by. One of my colleagues said it was the best Team Building Away Day that they’ve been part of, so I just wanted to let you know and to say thanks again. S.Foster
Cub scout workshop
6th Rochford Cubs had a fantastic couple of nights with Llorien and Louise. They were fully engaged and loved every minute! Thank you to you both for giving up your time to entertain and teach our little guys the art of detection. I would fully recommend you.
