With the festive season fast approaching, and a huge range of factors to bear in mind across the board, there’s never been a better time to consider how you secure your business. Shifting calendars and glittering events often throw your usual operations into disarray, and can even leave you scrambling to accommodate the changes to your schedule.
That’s where Churchill’s one-stop-shop guide to security over the festive period comes in. With our in-depth exploration, you’ll discover what your business needs to consider as we head into winter, and how those security measures serve as the basis for a prosperous start to 2025.
When we think of the festive season, many of us immediately imagine the parties and revelry that time of year naturally brings with it. Whether it’s a corporate shindig, a Christmas lights switch-on, or a festive show, effective event security is the only thing that isn’t negotiable.
As part of the duties you can expect from an event security officer, they’ll be able to:
Not only that, but event security offers you the opportunity to relax and get involved at the most wonderful time of the year. There’s no better celebration than one you can join in with and with Churchill’s extensive range of event security services over the festive period, you can relax knowing that your event and your guests are secure.
While you might be leaving your premises vacant over the festive period, there’s no guarantee that criminals and trespassers will follow the same rulebook. Of course, you deserve a break during the festive period, and that’s where additional protection comes to the fore.
Many people structure their security measures around their usual day-to-day operations, and naturally over the Christmas period that’s subject to change. Extra security officers – whether on a more regular basis than usual, or comprehensive 24-hour coverage – are the ideal remedy to those concerns.
As part of those additional festive duties, you’ll be able to ask your security officers to:
It’s also worth remembering that, while your business may shut up shop over the festive period, security never sleeps. With Control Centres operational throughout the Christmas and New Year period, you’re always in safe hands.
A manned security presence isn’t always the right option, however. Whether that’s down to budgetary constraints, the size of your site or circumstances beyond your control, there’s not a one-size-fits-all package for your site’s security.
That’s why all of our solutions are tailor-made, and a key component of that lies in our alarm response services. An average national response time of just 30 minutes is, of course, the headline statistic, but that takes on an additional dimension over the festive period.
Having that ultra-responsive service on your side over the seasonal break allows you to truly rest in the knowledge that your premises are under the watchful eye of trained professionals. Here at Churchill Support Services, our Control Room is manned 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and always by SIA-licensed operatives – the gold standard across our industry.
With an unmatched reputation for delivering purpose-built security solutions, and a proven track record as the UK’s #1 security company under the Security Industry Authority, Churchill are the ideal choice for staying safe this festive season.
