New Romney's evenings revolve around places like the Cinemarsh cinema and the 15 pubs and bars within 5km. We staff events, supervise doors and look after licensed premises once the last customers have gone home.
Trusted Protection in New Romney
New Romney is a Kent town in south-east England, and leisure plays a large part in its economy. Hospitality accounts for 9.7% of businesses in Folkestone and Hythe, against 6.5% for Britain. The Cinemarsh cinema, local pubs and private functions all bring people together in the evening, which is where door supervisors, stewards and a clear event plan make the difference. Afterwards, alarm response and key holding protect the building overnight.
New Romney Business Profile
The district has 3,855 registered businesses. Construction is narrowly the largest sector with 580, professional services follow with 570, and hospitality ranks third with 375. Retail is also slightly above average at 8.7% of firms, compared with 7.8% nationally, so shops along the main streets form part of the picture alongside cafés and pubs.
For hospitality, the natural fit is door supervision and evening cover, with key holding after closing. Builders working on the 8 construction sites mapped within 5km need different protection: CCTV towers and patrols for plant left on open ground. Every officer we send is SIA-licensed, vetted to BS 7858 and paid via PAYE, and reports each visit digitally after a GPS book-on.
The Cinemarsh cinema is the town's main named venue within 5km. Any premises or event admitting 200 people or more is covered by Martyn's Law, and we can help with stewarding, searches and planning. What Martyn's Law means for venues.
