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.

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.

From the unrivalled beauty of its rolling hills and highlands, to the cobbled streets and winding ways of its labyrinthine cities, Scotland’s charm knows no bounds. Key in that appeal is its packed events calendar, which spans everything from Edinburgh’s Fringe through to the Highland Games, drawing in bustling crowds throughout the year.
It’s this undoubted popularity that contributes towards the pressing need for event security in Scotland. The key risk factors for event organisers and attendees alike are the country’s high rates of both crimes of dishonesty 103,393 offences and violent crimes 68,870 offences in the last year alone.
While there’s no doubt that the event scene in Scotland 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 Scotland 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.

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.
