We recently had the pleasure of providing our services to Game On Cornwall at a beautiful location. A fantastic and successful event which was very well organised by Neil Potter and the whole team. We are proud to move forward being the go to security provider, helping a local business, local enthusiasts and being a very small part in the future success of further events.

Hearing that the terror threat level has changed can feel heavy but not so much for us in Cornwall, so we think! It’s the kind of news that makes you pause for a moment and wonder how close it is to us personally. But it’s also a reminder of how important it is to stay aware, not afraid.

Life doesn’t stop, and neither should we. We go to work, meet friends, take our kids to school because that’s what resilience and community spirit looks like. At the same time, staying alert and looking out for one another matters more than ever.

Check in on your people. Stay informed from reliable sources.
Remember: fear divides, but community keeps us strong.

For as long as we are supplying services professionally or integrating personally, rest assured we are here and vigilant.

If you see something that doesn’t feel right, report it not matter how smaller detail you think it is.

As the sun stays out longer, the team at Safe Location Services is shifting into high gear!

The arrival of Daylight Saving Time and the kickoff of event season doesn't just mean more sunshine - it means our team is hitting the ground running to ensure our community stays protected through the busiest months of the year.

How We’re Preparing for Your Spring & Summer:

- Event Readiness: Our guards are already on-site at local venues, coordinating logistics for the upcoming festival and gala season.

- Extended Patrols: With more foot traffic in business districts and residential areas, we’ve optimised our patrol routes to match the increased activity of longer evenings.

- System Refreshes: We’re currently conducting seasonal maintenance for our clients, ensuring that every camera and sensor is ready for the transition into warmer weather.

While everyone else is enjoying the extra hour of light, we’re using it to keep a closer eye on what matters most to you. From high-profile events to 24/7 site monitoring, Safe Location Services remains the standard for professional protection.

Looking for a security partner that’s already one step ahead? Let’s talk about your seasonal security plan today.

Effective April 1, 2026, the Security Industry Authority (SIA) will be adjusting the individual license application fee. After six years of a subsidized rate, the cost for both new applications and renewals will return to the statutory fee of £204.

What you need to know:

- The Change: The current £20 rebate (which set the fee at £184) is ending as the SIA’s surplus reserves have been fully utilised.

- The Deadline: Any applications or renewals submitted on or after April 1, 2026, will be charged at the new rate.

- The Context: Despite this adjustment, the fee remains significantly lower in real terms than the original 2004 price when adjusted for inflation.

At SLS, we are committed to keeping our team and partners informed. Navigating compliance and licensing is essential for maintaining the high standards of the UK security sector.

If you have questions regarding how these changes affect your upcoming renewals, or if you are looking to start a career in the security industry, our team is here to help.

From 1 April 2026 the cost for applying for an SIA licence for any sector will be £204, as the temporary £20 rebate scheme comes to an end.

Over the last six years, we have been able to use historical reserves, accrued before April 2020, to provide a £20 per licence rebate towards the application fee cost. In practice, this is currently reducing the amount paid by an applicant from £204 to £184 a licence. Those historical reserves are now fully exhausted and so the cost to apply for a licence will revert to the statutory fee of £204.

The statutory licence fee itself is not increasing. It has remained at £204 since it was reduced from £210 in April 2023. The change means applicants will no longer benefit from the £20 rebate.

Both first-time applications and renewals will cost £204 from 1 April 2026.

Our Chief Executive, Michelle Russell, said: "Since 2020, we were allowed to subsidise the cost of an SIA licence from previous historical reserves which had been built up. Those reserves are now gone, and we have a responsibility as a self-funding regulator to charge the full cost of the services we deliver.

"We have worked to keep the licence fee as low as possible and have absorbed rising third-party costs along the way. At £204, the fee remains considerably lower in real terms than when we introduced licensing more than two decades ago. We will continue to drive efficiency and productivity so we can keep costs down for the people we regulate.”

We are largely self-funding and committed to keeping people safe and secure. The application fee covers all operating costs including licensing, identity and criminality checks, customer service, and compliance and enforcement.

Security Recruitment Post.
Its mandatory for a spring time security post.

Summer is coming, and in the UK, this means five glorious months of trying to remember where you put your sunscreen while simultaneously putting on a waterproof poncho.

​Spartan Consultancy Security Management is looking for some more absolute legends to join us for the May to September season.

If you fancy a summer spent in a high-vis vest then read on.

​🛡️ Event Security: The SIA Superstars
​Can you maintain a professional "nothing to see here" face while a man dressed as a giant banana tries to explain why he’s lost his left shoe?

​The Pay: Starting at £14ph.
​The Admin: Paid via a proper payroll company. No "I’ll get you back later" or mysterious envelopes here.

​The Vibe: You’ll be the face of the festival. Must be able to point towards the toilets at least 400 times a day with a smile.

​🚑 Event Medics: The Blister Battlers.
​Our medical team is already well established, but we’re looking for more professionals to join the ranks. We need people who can handle everything from "I’ve got a splinter" to "I didn't realise the sun was hot." If you can stay calm when everyone else is losing their cool, you’re our kind of person.

​🔥 Fire Safety: The Smoke Spotters
​Our fire safety team is technically full, but we’re always looking to bolster the squad with a few more specialists. Essentially, we want a bench of AdHOK fire safety experts.

​Why Spartan?

​We’re not your average "stand by a gate and stare at a hedge" outfit. We take our security management seriously, but at the same time we don't take ourselves too seriously.
You’ll be working with a team that actually has your back, and more importantly, knows how to use a radio correctly.

​The Checklist:
​Valid Credentials: SIA license for security, proper certs for Medics/Fire.

​Vetting: You must be able to pass BS7858 screening. (If your history is more "international man of mystery" than "reliable professional," this might be a snag).

​Stamina: The ability to stand for long periods without turning into a glazed over statue.

​Attitude: A sense of humour is mandatory. If you can't laugh when it starts hailing in July, this might not be for you.

​Want in?

Drop us a message or comment below to join Team Spartan for the 2026 season. Let’s keep the public safe and the vibes high.

This morning we read of the tragic events that have taken place while a security officer who thought he was just going to work and returning home at the end of his shift, a normal day earning his bread and butter.

Legislation is forgotten when it comes to retail security and we believe this is a part of the industry that needs a revamp. The problem of increased hardship, economic crisis, unemployment, immigration, homelessness, crime & more, all contribute to a vulnerable society.
