Over 50 Years of Compliance Expertise
RADCaT is a family-run compliance consultancy based in Wigan, Greater Manchester. Since 2004, we've helped businesses across the UK navigate complex health and safety, dangerous goods, DSEAR, GDPR and employment legislation.
From Local Consultancy to Nationwide Compliance Partner
RADCaT was founded in 2004 by David Kenyon with a clear vision: to provide practical, affordable compliance solutions to businesses navigating increasingly complex UK legislation. Starting with dangerous goods safety advice (DGSA) and specialist training services, David built a reputation across the transport and logistics industry for expert, no-nonsense consultancy.
In 2010, Dawn Kenyon joined the family business, and by 2011 she became Managing Director, bringing fresh energy and strategic vision. Under Dawn's leadership, RADCaT expanded from a specialist dangerous goods consultancy into a comprehensive compliance partner — adding health and safety, GDPR data protection, DSEAR assessments, and HR and employment law services to the portfolio.
Today, RADCaT proudly supports businesses of all sizes — from local SMEs in Wigan and Greater Manchester to national blue-chip organisations — with a growing team of qualified consultants delivering tailored compliance solutions across every major UK industry sector.

What Our Clients Say
When it comes to hiring rooms for training, meetings, or even interviews, the RADCaT premises are our first call. The whole building is immaculate and the rooms we hire are perfect — clean, modern, tech-ready. The staff go over and beyond, and Nathan is an absolute asset. Hiring rooms at RADCaT is simple, less expensive than many other places, yet it feels like you've paid a fortune for it. Highly recommended.
RADCaT exceeded all our expectations! The training provided was absolutely excellent, offering valuable insights and practical knowledge tailored to our needs. The building and facilities are superb. What sets RADCaT apart is their focus on building strong working relationships — their communication is second to none, with a team that's always approachable, responsive, and supportive. Highly recommended.
We appointed RADCaT as our DGSA back in 2010, and we've been extremely happy with the services they offer. Thankfully, we've never had to use their emergency number, but their annual audits are comprehensive and reassuring. It's comforting to know that if the worst happened, we'd be fully supported.
RADCaT has helped us immensely with every aspect of data protection. I feel totally confident that my school is legally compliant and has all the required policies in place. The team is knowledgeable, reliable, and always available to help with any queries. They've been amazing!
Thank you so much to the team at RADCaT for helping us implement ongoing COVID-19 safety measures at our fortnightly business networking and conference meetings. The Health & Safety team worked with us to develop a comprehensive risk assessment and measures that help keep our members and guests safe.
