Trusted Protection in Slough
For a Slough business, the size of the local network matters more than any brochure. We have 190 registered security workers whose homes are within 10 miles of the town, and 70 currently hold an SIA licence and are active for bookings. Twenty drive, which helps mobile patrol routes linking estates such as Vansittart Estate, Slough Business Park and Portland Business Park. That pool lets us plan multi-site rotas without stretching thin.
Slough Business Profile
Our 70 SIA-active officers around Slough cover gatehouse control, reception desks, retail floors and night patrols. Every one is vetted to BS 7858 and employed on PAYE, books on by GPS and files digital reports that our 24/7 control room checks. With 20 drivers in the group, mobile patrols and alarm response can be routed efficiently between neighbouring estates.
Of Slough's 6,780 registered businesses, construction accounts for 950, transport and logistics 900 and tech and communications 885. Logistics firms make up 13.3% of the total, more than three times the 4.3% British figure, which means gatehouses, yards and warehouses needing guards. Tech companies, at 13.1% against 7.0%, need access control and CCTV monitoring for offices and data sites.
Arbour Park stadium, the Elite Banqueting suite and The Old Ticket Hall are within 5km. Events there for 200 or more people will be in scope of Martyn's Law once it starts, and we can provide stewards and search teams. What Martyn's Law means for venues.

Security Requirements in Slough
The 5km circle around Slough is crowded with commercial ground: Slough Interchange Industrial Estate, The Business Village, Deseronto Trading Estate, the Observatory Shopping Centre, Slough Retail Park, Westgate Retail Park and Bath Road Shopping Park. Wexham Park, Upton and two private hospitals are in range, as are stations at Slough, Langley, Datchet and both Windsor and Eton stops.
That density brings constant vehicle and foot traffic, 69 pubs and bars, and 24 mapped construction sites, so security has to cover loading bays, car parks and retail floors as well as front doors.
