Posted by Kelly Marsh on Thursday, January 5, 2023, In : Personal Security 
Summer is on the way! Many of us will be enjoying long afternoons in the beer garden and BBQs with friends after what feels like the longest winter. It’s great to be out catching up with everyone again, and with the warm weather, many of us will be choosing to stretch our legs and walk to our destinations rather than using the car. If you need to walk it’s always best to pair up or walk with a group if possible, but if you do find yourself walking alone, here are some tips for an enjoyabl...

Night driving safety tips

Posted by Dale Harris on Tuesday, January 3, 2023, In : Personal Security 
Driving at night can be packed full of dangers, even if you are an experienced driver, or a learner that is embarking on their car journey for the first time and perhaps an area that will keep you safe at night driving as a learner. That is why it is so essential that you take the time to ensure you are driving as safely as possible in low light environments.



Reduce Your Speed

Speed limits exist for a reason, which is even more true at night. It can be hard to spot oncoming dangers such as shar...

Staying Safe In Nightclubs

Posted by Mike Hill on Monday, September 20, 2021, In : Personal Security 
While clubbing is all about having fun, it’s important to remember that this is nightlife, and darker things come out at night. Always be aware of your surroundings and know about the destination you’ll visit before heading on over. Serious injury, trauma or even death are all preventable on your part and all it takes are a few precautionary measures.



Sorry to kill the buzz on your spontaneity. Perhaps clubbing just isn’t the same as it used to be. What with the easy accessibility of dru...

Posted by Mark Austin on Thursday, August 22, 2019, In : Hotel Security 
All through my vocation, I have looked into a lot of inns around the globe, and whether I am going on business or for joy, I am constantly aware of the way that inns are an objective for crooks, psychological militants and the rationally shaky (think stalkers). 



Here is my own inn well being agenda. 

Book On the web 

This spares you time when you arrive. It additionally implies you need to give less data over the counter where other individuals can hear.

Safety tips for women

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Saturday, January 13, 2018, In : Personal Security 
Although women feel more vulnerable when they’re out, it’s actually young men who are a higher risk of violence.
In this day and age, you have to prepare yourself for whatever may come your way. There are people out there who are just looking for targets and you want to make sure you’re not one of them.



Keeping safe whilst walking

Always try to walk facing on-coming traffic to avoid kerb crawlers (men who drive around looking for prostitutes).

Staying safe in a Nightclub

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Saturday, November 18, 2017, In : Personal Security 
Even with the recent club fires in past years, it’s safe to say that being vigilante in the area of safety isn’t at the forefront of the average clubbers mind, since most people are just looking to get the most buzz for their money when it comes to having fun and enjoying themselves, but that has to change.



Consumers should take extra notice of clubs that are either above or below ground level, since these types of venues require stairs to enter and exit, and staircases always create the p...

What to do if a dog attacks you

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Tuesday, September 26, 2017, In : Personal Security 
Even though dog bites are relatively common, full-blown attacks are not. It is important to know what to do in the unlikely event an attack happens.



What type of behaviour do dogs normally exhibit before attacking?

There is no one size fits all when it comes to the signals a dog gives before attacking, and while the signs of aggression such as growling, snarling, baring teeth and lunging are easy to read, there can also be signs that are so subtle, such as a moment of tension or a small freeze,...

Staying safe on buses and trains

Posted by Spartan 24 Hour Security on Monday, September 25, 2017, In : Personal Security 


Know the bus or train times


It sounds obvious but knowing the time your train or bus is due to leave will save you hanging round on dark platforms or at bus stops at this time of year. It's particularly important to know the time of the last bus or train home if you are travelling late at night so that you do not become stranded - and vulnerable to attack.

Catch your bus or train from somewhere well lit

Thieves are far less likely to strike in well lit areas so try to make sure that you catch yo...
