“I would like to express how professional the ProFM staff deployed to our site have been. Many people have tried to access the site, but have always been deterred by the ProFM team. I couldn’t of wished for a better service. Thank you to the team for all your support throughout the project.”
As one of the UK market leaders in luxury chocolate, Hotel Chocolat have quickly become synonymous with both that signature creamy texture and their high-impact, groundbreaking social initiatives. We’re thrilled to have been their security partner over the last 9 years, offering the bespoke levels of support that a brand like HC demands.
It’s fair to say that, since the Grenfell disaster in 2017, fire safety has taken on an entirely new level of importance. That’s something we’ve built a comprehensive familiarity with, and with our fast-acting and robust mobilisation at Berwick Court in Southwark, we were able to deliver a comprehensive, multi-officer solution at a moment’s notice.
“ProFM is an amazingly caring company. I truly feel like a person rather than a number, and they’re always on call if ever I need anything. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend ProFM!”

Their approach and drive to really understand our events and the type of team they need to deploy at each venue has ensured that our customers and teams truly have a security team that have their safety and security at the forefront of their approach.”
“Security are a critical part of the team, I go home on an evening and am happy and confident that everything is ok. We have a very successful relationship with ProFM and will be working with them for a long time”
“We appreciate the work ProFM Group has done and thank you for your contribution to the successful management of our emergency provision, through which we were able to provide accommodation and support to these often-vulnerable clients.”
“ProFM Group have been awarded the security contract for our new £32M facility here at Newport. When the facility was opened by HRH Prince Charles, there were a number of VIPs on this day, and the ProFM team worked closely with the Royal Security Team to make the day run smoothly.”
A pioneer in specialist products and chemicals for building projects, SIKA’s reputation so often precedes it. It’s that reputation that meant it needed an equally reputable security solution, and ProFM were on hand to deliver exactly that. That’s kick-started a multi-year partnership and personalised solutions.
Our events team tailor their approach to your specific event’s requirements, considering important aspects such as the size, venue, duration, and alcohol intake of your occasion.
The presence of event security guards provides an effective visual deterrent, turning away potential troublemakers and dissuading attendees from smuggling illegal items or disrupting the peace.
Our event security guards can fulfil additional functions to ensure a safe and successful event, such as conducting risk assessments, providing first-aid, and planning for emergencies.
Effective crowd management is central to an events success, so our officers are trained to ensure the continued safety and smooth movement of people and personnel.

With our event security guards able to adapt and fulfil multiple roles such as checking tickets or managing parking, you can keep costs down without compromising on event functions.
It’s practically impossible to condense the Scottish capital down to a short paragraph. From that core sense of history and heritage typified by the castle at the city’s heart, to the metropolitan hub it’s quickly flourished into, it’s no surprise Edinburgh’s events scene is equally as vibrant as the city itself.
That vibrancy does little to mask the problems facing event security in Edinburgh, however. Startling crime figures that include high rates of crimes of dishonesty 17,099 offences, crimes against society 5,295 offences and antisocial crimes 4,014 offences underscore that need for a prevalence of security.
While there’s no doubt that the event scene in Edinburgh is among the UK’s most diverse, it’s equally true that events – no matter how big or small – can attract both the right and the wrong kinds of attention. Your event security officers are there in both eventualities, offering the comforting presence, the peace of mind and the robust deterrent your event needs.
We’re also on hand to provide the support you need if something goes wrong. With first-aid trained officers and full compliance with the newly minted Martyn’s Law, we have an exceptional track record of providing bespoke, comprehensive security for events throughout Edinburgh and beyond.
With a proven track record established over the last 28 years, and an exceptional ability to deliver bespoke solutions time and time again, we can tailor our security offerings to match the size and scope of your event. That includes everything from festivals that attract hundreds of thousands of attendees, to more intimate gatherings in a local park or community centre.
Unsure if we’d be able to provide the security your next event needs? Speak to one of our expert team today to discuss your options in more detail, and to discover more about how we plan for even the largest, most complex events.
This isn’t an easy question to answer, unfortunately. Several different factors can impact the amount of security officers your event needs, including:
These are all factors that can and do contribute towards the security presence we’d advise for your event. Our in-house security gurus will discuss these – and a myriad more factors – with you when you first enquire. As a general rule, however, we’d strongly advise a minimum of 1 security officer per 150 attendees.
With one of the UK’s most extensive and expertly trained networks of security, ProFM are proud to provide our exceptional event security to every part of Edinburgh. Whether it’s a birthday bash, a platinum-selling pop star, or a festival through the streets, our adaptable and robust event security solutions are on hand to help.

As a general rule, we’ll opt to wear our purpose-built ProFM uniform, just as this makes us immediately recognisable to your guests, and adds to our preventative presence. Equally, though, we’re happy to wear suits for a more formal appearance, or plain clothes if you’d like more covert security. Above all though, you and your guests will always be able to recognise our superb security officers.
We tailor-make every single one of our event security packages to ensure that, not only is every aspect of your celebration protected, but that you’re able to truly relax and enjoy what you’ve worked so hard to plan. While this bespoke approach means we’re unable to give price estimates, it does ensure your event gets the due care and attention it needs, from security professionals who truly care.
