Private security sector
Richard Jenkins, NSI Chief Executive commented: “Recognising the invaluable contribution of those in the private security sector who work tirelessly to keep people and property safe in our everyday lives is crucial.”
“Without their dedication and commitment to safeguarding our communities, in partnership with the police and other key stakeholders, the places in which we live, work and spend our leisure time in today’s complex and unpredictable environments would be far less safe. As a supporter of the Fire and Security Matters Awards we are proud to congratulate the finalists and winners for their achievements and wish them all every success in the future.”
