What we do
We provide comprehensive crime scene guarding services that help police authorities reallocate trained officer resources and reduce expenses. Our security guards are comprehensively vetted and highly trained professionals with the knowledge and experience to work effectively under difficult circumstances.
These services are suitable for:
Road Traffic Accidents: When a tragedy occurs on the roads, our team is trained to secure the scene and respect the potentially shocking nature of such incidents by obscuring them from public view. We then ensure the integrity of the evidence and maintain public safety.
Serious Crimes such as Murder and Rape: We recognise the sensitive nature of these incidents and the importance of preserving the integrity of the crime scene. Our expert guards are equipped to handle these challenging situations with professionalism and care.
Robberies and Burglaries: Our guards can maintain the integrity of crime scenes when a robbery or burglary has taken place, ensuring the preservation of evidence and eliminating the risk of further criminal activity.
Street Crime: Swift response and effective crime scene management are crucial in cases of street crime like stabbings or mugging. Our highly trained guards will secure the area, providing a safe environment for investigators and preserving evidence.
Terrorist Incidents: Our specialised guards are prepared to protect crime scenes after a terrorist incident, allowing police and other emergency services to focus on their counter-terrorism response.
How we do it
Our crime scene guarding service takes a three-pronged approach to securing a crime scene:
Uniformed Security
When a crime scene needs to be secured, our professional security guards are trained to handle these sensitive situations.
By wearing a formal uniform, they are instantly recognisable as a legitimate authority with responsibility for guarding the scene.
With training in public interaction, access control and crowd management techniques, you can be sure that our officers will interact with the public professionally and appropriately.
By stopping any attempts to enter the crime scene or breach the perimeter without proper authority to do so, we make sure integrity is preserved
Physical Security
We know that securing a crime scene quickly is crucial. Whether we take over an established scene or respond to an emergency, our teams are prepared to respond rapidly
We use barrier tape and barriers to create a perimeter and put resources in place to ensure nothing is disturbed and no evidence is compromised.
With the investigation underway, we have the resources to introduce mobile CCTV to both monitor and feed a livestream to stakeholders
Our guards stand watch around the clock, allowing only authorised personnel to enter the scene.
Reporting & Liaison
We understand that clear and consistent channels of communication are essential to guard a crime scene effectively.
Committed to providing comprehensive support, our officers can interact seamlessly with all stakeholders.
We will write and submit reports and updates, supply CCTV footage, and offer thorough verbal reporting to authorised persons.
Whether it’s simple access control or something more complex like evidence gathering, obtaining witness statements, or providing contact details for the incident room, we have the resources to provide the support you need.
