Expert Security For Events Across The Hospitality Sector
Expert Security For Events Across The Hospitality Sector
As one of the UK’s most vibrant and active sectors, the hospitality and leisure industry is arguably one of its most in need of security, especially during its packed event calendar. Whether that’s for large-scale gatherings in a sprawling community hall, or a localised party in a social club, Churchill has the necessary expertise and professionalism to provide a comprehensive security package.
With our expertly trained security officers, as well as an exceptional reputation for stellar service across a huge range of services, you can rely on Churchill Support Services to provide a complete security offering for your hospitality event.
Officially the UK’s leading ACS-accredited security company, we’ve honed and perfected our hospitality security packages over the course of our extensive, 27 year history. All of our security personnel have unmatched levels of training, as well as full accreditation from the Security Industry Authority (SIA).
We can offer a huge range of duties as part of our all-encompassing service, ranging from controlling who gets admitted to your party, to comprehensive crowd management services, to providing support in the event of an emergency
One of the aspects we’re most proud of here at Churchill Support Services, and that we feel truly sets us apart from our competitors, is the tailormade approach we take to all of the security projects we undertake.
We design a completely customised solution from the ground up, working tirelessly alongside you to ensure that the security we provide matches perfectly for your event. This is something we’ve done consistently over our 27 year tenure, and we’ve got the necessary capacity to cover events and get-togethers across all shapes, sizes, and sectors.
With events in the hospitality and leisure sectors often attracting huge and diverse crowds, it stands to reason that one of the most important aspects of securing these shindigs lies in crowd management.
Our expertly trained security professionals all have extensive and robust training in crowd management best practice, as well as in de-escalating any conflicts that arise. This also extends to removing any guests who are creating trouble, as well as any overly intoxicated attendees.
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.
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.
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.
Churchill Support Services are in the top 1% of ACS-Approved Contractors and are SafeContractor approved. All of our event security guards are SIA-licensed and vetted for 5 years.
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.
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.
One of the UK’s most integral sectors, and a staple of our high streets and city centres, the hospitality industry has long since been a major focal point for the country’s wealth. There’s concrete evidence of that in the latest economic report, which places the hospitality sector’s contributions to the economy at £93 billion directly, and £121 billion indirectly.
However, with such a significant contribution and money exchanged, there naturally comes the risk of crime and criminal behaviour, and that’s particularly true of the hospitality sector. The latest statistics show that there were 13,003 criminal offences in hotels over the last year, alongside a substantial spike in crime rates across pubs, restaurants and bars after the pandemic.
While it can be tempting to try and secure your venue yourself, whether to reduce costs or otherwise, the benefits of having professional security on-site far outweigh any costs. The chief among these is the fact that it allows you relax, safe in the knowledge that your party is protected.
Plus, by opting for expertly trained security officers, you can rest assured that all of your guests are kept safe, and that, if you decide to repeat your event in the future, your attendees will only have a positive impression of what you’ve organised
All of our security personnel are extensively and professionally trained in the latest regulations surrounding emergency and evacuation procedures, which are consistently reviewed to ensure their compliance with the most up-to-date government guidelines.
We can also provide security officers with industry-recognised qualifications in first aid, which is essential if you’re running an event with a large number of attendees, or where alcohol will be served.
Not at all! We’ve got the pedigree and extensive experience needed to provide a comprehensive security service for venues of all shapes and sizes. We’ve covered events and parties that range from huge, open-air festivals to smaller, more intimate venues.
As one of the country’s leading nationwide security providers, we’re able to offer comprehensive security solutions throughout the mainland UK and Northern Ireland. We’re fully committed to providing a flexible and comprehensive security service, and with our vast network of security professionals, we can cover every inch of the United Kingdom.
Every member of the security personnel we employ have the undergone the same, rigorous training. This means they can undertake a huge range of duties, including:
Of course! While we’d always recommend planning your event security months in advance to ensure that you can accommodate any eventuality, we pride ourselves on being able to offer robust and exceptional security at very short notice.
We can often provide same-day security for your hospitality events, all to the same exacting standards you expect from the UK’s leading security company.
This is entirely down to you, your planning process, and the capacity your venue can reasonably hold. All of the security contracts we design are completely tailored to your event and its expected attendance, and we can provide personnel that are ideally suited to both smaller gatherings and huge get-togethers.
As we’ve touched on, all of our contracts are completely tailormade. This ensures we can customise what we offer to the unique demands of your event, the number of guests who’ll be attending, and crucially your budget. While this does mean that we’re unable to give an average price point for our security services, it does ensure you get exactly what you need for an acceptable cost.
