The Art and Science of Child Interviewing with Triangle

In this episode, we speak with Carly McAuley and Maxime Cole from Triangle, a UK-based organisation specialising in investigative interviewing of children (triangle.org.uk)and vulnerable adults.

Carly McAuley and Maxime Cole shared with us Triangle's approach to investigative interviewing with children and vulnerable adults. The conversation explores how very young children - even two and three-year-olds - can provide reliable, court-admissible evidence when interviewed using appropriate techniques. Triangle's expertise challenges long-held assumptions about children's capabilities and demonstrates that the quality of evidence obtained depends entirely on the adult interviewer's communication skills, not the child's inherent abilities.
