SPECTATOR SAFTEY & CROWED CONTROL

Scotguard is widely recognized as the fastest growing crowd management and event security provider in the UK. Our extensive experience in supplying event security services and event safety personnel to some of Scotland’s most popular outdoor events sets us apart from the competition.

We understand that each client comes with their own unique set of challenges, and we are committed to continuously evaluating and adapting our services to meet their specific needs. Whether it’s last-minute deployment changes, increased client requirements, or heightened terror threat levels, we are always prepared to respond swiftly and effectively.

One of our key strengths lies in our experienced and streamlined management structure, which allows for immediate and decisive communication. This ensures that we can efficiently prepare and schedule each deployment, taking into account every possible scenario. Our event documentation is meticulously thorough and robust, providing our management teams, control room staff, supervisors, and frontline teams with all the necessary information to execute the events’ operational plan seamlessly. This includes frequently asked questions, event command structure, event-specific policies, site maps, and positional dot plans.

With a well-established staffing infrastructure of safety and security personnel, we have the capacity to operate throughout Scotland at major events, offering a wide range of security and safety services. In addition to our core services, we also provide specialized offerings such as Close Protection Officers, Artist Security, Behavioural Detection Officers, and Dog Handling services.

Another crucial aspect of our event delivery is prioritizing the welfare of our employees and promoting the safety and protection of the wider community. We understand that event environments can often be challenging and complex, so we take proactive measures to ensure the well-being of our staff and the communities we serve.

In addition to our regular services, we have also provided bespoke services for a variety of specialist events, including red carpet events, award ceremonies, film premieres, and book signings. Our ability to tailor our services to meet the unique requirements of these events further demonstrates our commitment to delivering exceptional event security and management solutions.

Scotguard adopts a risk-focused strategy when it comes to managing our event arena operations. We recognize the significance of meticulous planning in ensuring the triumph of every event. Our approach to each arena event is distinct, and we collaborate closely with our clients throughout the planning process.

By implementing a risk-based approach, we carefully assess potential hazards and vulnerabilities associated with the event. This allows us to develop comprehensive plans that address all aspects of security, crowd management, and emergency response. We work hand in hand with our clients, taking into account their specific requirements and expectations, to create a tailored plan that aligns with their vision and objectives.

Our partnership with clients extends beyond the planning phase. We provide ongoing support and guidance throughout the event, ensuring that all security measures are implemented effectively. Our experienced team remains vigilant during the event, continuously monitoring the situation and making necessary adjustments to maintain a safe and secure environment for all attendees.
