Licensed stewards, foyer officers and supervisors are all available for theatre nights and functions. For venues with capacity above 200, we also help prepare for Martyn's Law, including search and evacuation plans. ### Our hotel is hosting a wedding. Do we need security? Hotels such as the Glyn Clydach host large functions where alcohol and big guest lists combine. Violence accounted for 1,031 offences within a mile of Neath, so discreet door staff for the evening part of an event is a sensible precaution. ### Shoplifting is getting worse. What can you do?

Uniformed retail officers at peak times and store detectives where losses are concentrated are the usual response. ### How many security workers do you have locally?
