The event policing contractor TSG has been invited to put its solutions into practice at the UK Security Expo, at London Olympia, as part of the Immersive Demonstrator at the exhibition.
Introduced last year, the Immersive Demonstrator is run by organiser Nineteen Events in association with the Home Office, the CPNI and other government departments.
Themed ‘Securing Crowded Places’ in 2016, this practical part of the expo will show how a combination of technology, processes and techniques can be applied, in a variety of operational scenarios, to improve protection from terrorist attack.
Nicola Greenaway-Fuller, Managing Director of Nineteen Events, says: “TSG offers a different service from other private security companies. We liked the fact that the resources it uses are trained and managed by police professionals. They can help us bring the scenarios to life through their experience and expertise.
“A proven, private company like TSG is very important to the 21st century policing model. Crowded places, live events, venues and stadia are at huge risk and the police presence there is reducing. People need a high-level alternative service, which they can rely on.”
And TSG Managing Director, David Boswell, says: “The Immersive Demonstrator at UK Security Expo is an opportunity to see the latest technology and solutions in action, side by side. We’re very proud to be playing a part, along with some other great companies.”
