The forensic night was really interesting. A team of forensic scientists came in to demonstrate what they do to help solve what happened at a crime scene. It started off with a presentation. Them everyone was split into four groups and shown different techniques in finding evidence on different surfaces. It was truly amazing to watch. This was a linking lives, Derby university and Derbyshire constabulary partnership project.

The Drop Inn was decorated with these "do not enter" banners everywhere. It was a really good set up. With loads of different thing for people to do.

This activity was to simulate a crime scene investigation. The lights were off to start with so you could only see what the light from a little touch was pointed at. Once the main lights were turned on, everyone was feeling queazy toward a rotting body (Model of course) in the corner, with added maggots. The whole demonstration was so interesting.

Here are the forensic scientists of the future. After all the training and demonstrations they all experienced, they can now go out and solve some mysteries! Looking forward to doing this night again, thank you, and please come again.
