Three named sites shape commercial Filey: the Brig Shopping Centre, Hunmanby Industrial Estate and The Evron Centre Theatre. We secure shops, units and venues across the town and its coast.
Trusted Protection in Filey
Three places define commercial Filey on the facts. The Brig Shopping Centre handles retail, Hunmanby Industrial Estate houses workshops and trade units, and The Evron Centre Theatre hosts audiences. Filey and Hunmanby stations sit within 5km, along with 27 pubs and bars. Each site needs something different, from a uniformed presence at the shops to key holding for empty units and stewarding at shows.
Filey Business Profile
North Yorkshire has 32,560 registered businesses. Agriculture is largest with 5,860, followed by professional services on 4,160 and construction on 3,960. Farms account for 18.0% of firms, four times the 4.5% British average, so solar CCTV towers and rural patrol routes carry weight around Filey. Hospitality is also above average, at 8.0% compared with 6.5%.
Officers for Filey contracts come from our wider network. They hold SIA licences, pass BS 7858 vetting and are paid through PAYE. Our in-house control room runs day and night, logging patrols by GPS, while cameras and alarms are monitored through an NSI Gold accredited centre, so owners of seasonal or empty premises can see exactly when each check happened.
The Evron Centre Theatre is the named venue within 5km. Venues for 200 or more people will be in scope of Martyn's Law once it commences, and we can support stewarding and search planning. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
