CCPR's new Compliance Officer Joy Tottman is spending the next 3 weeks in Vancouver. The location of our staff normally wouldn't be noteworthy, however, Joy will take part in the 2010 Winter Olympics as the sole ice hockey representive for the UK. She is one of 6 women who will be refereeing the women's Olympic ice-hockey games.
During these 3 weeks, Joy will be maintaining a regular blog here on the CCPR website. Not only will we get her thoughts on the games, location, atmosphere etc, but hopefully some photos as well!
This blog will be updated regularly, so please do come back to read the latest instalment. Please do also add your comments or questions, Joy will do her best to respond to them
