Tailored security plans for your venue or event

Security plans that are more than paper – practical, proportionate, and built around you

At RB Protect Solutions, we know that security plans can’t be generic templates. To truly work, they need to reflect your venue – how it operates, what your real risks are, and how your team and visitors will respond in practice.

We’ve spent over 25 years working with venues and events across the UK – from small community spaces to large, complex sites. We understand that your visitors want to feel safe, but not like security is overshadowing their experience.

That’s why our Tailored Security Plans are built around you – designed to be practical, proportionate, and realistic for your venue and team.

What makes a good security plan?

A good security plan is more than just a document – it’s a working guide that:

• Identifies the real threats and risks specific to your venue
  not just general guidance

• Considers what’s already in place
  including how your venue’s natural features can help in an incident (like open areas for triage or air circulation cut-offs in white powder incidents)

• Matches your tier under Martyn’s Law
  whether you’re in the Standard Tier (200–799 guests) or the Enhanced Tier (800+ guests)
• Balances robust security with a welcoming environment
  because heavy-handed measures can damage the visitor experience
• Builds staff confidence and understanding
  so they know exactly what to do
• Considers escalation protocols
  how you’ll respond if the national threat level changes, or if a local threat is identified
• Looks at how you handle sensitive information
  like planning applications that might expose building plans (we’ll help you manage this with SIPA best practice)
• Adapts to your changing events
  because we know that even a low-risk venue can face higher risks when hosting a high-profile performer or politically motivated show
• Covers personnel security
  from recruitment and insider threats to screening and offboarding

• Covers physical security
  like access control, CCTV, passes, searching, and patrolling
• Meets legal and best practice standards
  including everything in the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025
  

How we build your tailored security plan

Here’s what you can expect:

• We start by listening
  getting to know your venue, your events, your people, and your unique challenges

• We review what’s already in place
  so we can build on your strengths, not start from scratch

• We consider the real threats you face
  from vehicle attacks and lockdowns to postal devices, CRB, and other scenarios

• We work with you to create plans that are easy to understand and put into action
  so they’re usable in the real world, not just in theory

• We include updates and best practice from the National Protective Security Authority (NPSA)
  because as a Chartered Security Professional (CSyP)-led team, we’re a trusted conduit for their updates

• We tailor the plan to your size, budget, and environment
  because we know Martyn’s Law isn’t supposed to be a burden, and proportionate solutions are key

• We make sure the plan is a living document
  something that evolves as your venue does, not something that sits on a shelf

FAQs

Q: How is a Tailored Security Plan different from a generic one?
A: Generic plans often miss the real risks and challenges your venue faces. Our plans are built around your actual environment, your resources, and your staff – making them more practical and effective.

Q: Do I need a Tailored Security Plan if I’ve already done a Security Assessment?
A: Yes! The Security Assessment shows where you stand – the Tailored Security Plan sets out what you’ll actually do and how. 

Q: Will you help us put the plan into action?
A: Absolutely. We’re here to help you build it, train your staff on it, and review it so it’s always relevant.

Q: What if we don’t have a big budget?
A: We’re known for finding cost-effective, proportionate solutions. Our plans are always tailored to fit your venue’s size and budget – because Martyn’s Law shouldn’t be a financial burden.
