EVENT SECURITY

There are many aspects that need to be taken in to account when planning and preparing for an event, the amount SAS will put in to an event will depend on several key factors including, the type of event, size of event, risk rating, number of staff working the event and expected attendance, just to name a few.

Safe and Secure Security Services has an obligation and duty of care to ourselves, our staff, our clients and the public to ensure that all staff working an event have all the necessary information without overloading them, to ensure they can do their job to the best of their ability. This is to guarantee that our clients are always happy, that everyone attending the event remains safe and that the event goes to plan and runs smoothly.

Event Planning and Event Management

Safe and Secure (SAS) Security takes a meticulous approach to event security, ensuring that both your staff and our security team are fully prepared.

Our management team conducts a comprehensive briefing for all personnel involved in the event, providing clear, actionable instructions tailored to the specific needs of your venue.

Once the briefing is complete, printed copies of the event plan are distributed to each team member. This ensures that everyone is well-informed about the event layout, key access points, and any potential risks or challenges that may arise.

To further enhance operational readiness, SAS Security schedules start times well in advance of the event. This allows ample time for our staff to receive a thorough, face-to-face briefing, ask any necessary questions, and fully understand their roles and responsibilities before the event begins.

By prioritising communication and preparation, we ensure a seamless, secure, and well-coordinated event from start to finish.

Festival and Event Security

When it comes to festival and event security, we know and understand the finer workings of just how complex putting all the pieces together to make it a success can be. So, we want to provide you with the feeling that you have the right people for the job so you can concentrate on the finer details. We care when it comes to safeguarding your event and the safety of public in attendance of the event.

Our event security officers are fully licensed by the SIA, the officers have experience in crowd management as well as maintaining order in public, open and confined spaces. We use real time tracking devices for constant coverage of all areas within the event, combined with our drone surveillance services.

We have been trusted by our customers to manage some high-profile events such as British Touring at Silverstone, MMA and Boxing events, see our latest fighter escort efforts here.

Professional Security

Event Security is the face of your public or ticketed event, so it’s essential to have professionals who prioritise the safety of your attendees. They provide information on event facilities and schedules, ensuring the first interaction with your guests is a positive one.

If your event has attendance limits or alcohol licensing regulations, our security personnel are equipped to manage these requirements. They conduct hourly reports on attendance and monitor issues related to alcohol or illegal substances, ensuring compliance and safety.

In emergencies, our security team is trained to respond to small to medium fires and assist with full-scale evacuations. They will identify and make first contact with the emergency, guide guests to evacuation points, and secure the perimeter to prevent re-entry. Once emergency services arrive, the senior officer will coordinate and hand over control.

SAS ensures this happens by completing a brief based on all the information provided by key stakeholders.

The information for an event brief for staff comes from:

  • The Client
  • The Venue
  • The Bar Management Company
  • The First Aid Provider
  • Risk Management Plans – Risk Management Meetings
  • Event Management Plans
  • Security Management Plans
  • Key stake holder meetings
