On Tuesday 13th of February, the team travelled to Manchester to deliver a Security Briefing for the Cultural, Leisure, and Hospitality Sectors at HOME, Manchester, a multi-use facility operating cinemas, theatres, a gallery space and eateries.

The cultural, leisure, and hospitality sectors are facing many challenges including social, environmental, and adversarial threats. At a time when resources, including funding and personnel, are hard to find venues must use all of the available resources to reduce and manage the risks being faced.

We are proud to be one of the UK's foremost providers of specialist security and accredited training services to these sectors, helping protect millions of pounds worth of assets and improving the safety and security of hundreds of individuals. As a part of our continued social outreach programme, we were delighted to offer this free session welcoming members of staff within these sectors, but also to anybody who actively engages with members of the public.

During the session, we were able to outline the threats that existed, the risk management process that staff should follow, how attacks at venues can happen, and the best operational practices that are effective in protecting people, venues and their assets.

We would like to thank HOME for hosting us at their venue and to everyone who attended. To discuss how we can support your venue with advice and guidance, feel free to contact our team here.
