Bristol’s night-time economy is about more than just a good night out. It’s about making sure people get home safely too.

That’s why CR2 Security Group is proud to be supporting Bristol Safe Space at Night!

Working alongside Bristol BID, Bristol City Council, Avon and Somerset Police, Bristol Ambulance and various other key stakeholders, we’re helping provide a safe place for anyone who needs a bit of support while out in Bristol.

Lost your mates?
Phone dead?
Feeling unwell?
Need first aid?
Had enough for the night?
Just need somewhere safe to sit and regroup?

Then we’ve got you!

📍 Central Promenade, opposite the Security
🕙 Fridays & Saturdays | 10pm–4am

Heading into Bristol this weekend? Bristol Safe Space at Night is here to help you reset, recharge and stay safe on your night out.

If you’ve lost your mates, your phone’s dead, you’re feeling unwell, your feet have had enough or you just need somewhere to sit, regroup or wait for a taxi, come and find us.

Central Promenade, opposite the Hippodrome 📍
Every Friday and Saturday, 10pm–4am, from the 4th September 🕙

We can offer first aid, phone charging, welfare essentials, drink testing and support if you need a helping hand.

And we’re just getting started…we’re hoping to welcome volunteers and a dedicated Safe Space container by the end of the year - giving even more people a little backup on their night out. 👀

No judgement. No drama. Just helping good nights stay safe. 💙

Do you have a robust business continuity plan?

And more importantly…

Does it account for what happens to your premises when nobody is there?

Most businesses plan for IT failures, power cuts, supply chain disruption and operational downtime.

But what happens when someone targets your site at 2am?

A cut fence.
A forced door.
A break-in.
Vandalism.
Theft.

By the time your alarm alerts you, the disruption has already started.

This is where mobile security patrols become part of your business continuity strategy.

Regular, visible patrols provide a proactive security presence around your premises when your team has gone home.

They can deter opportunist crime, identify vulnerabilities early, spot damage or suspicious activity and provide a rapid response when something isn't right.

For business owners and facilities managers, it's about more than protecting property. It's about protecting your ability to keep operating.

Your business continuity plan shouldn't just tell you what to do after something goes wrong.It should include measures designed to stop it going wrong in the first place.

Ask yourself:

If something happened at your premises tonight, how quickly would you know and what would happen next?

Don’t wait for something to go wrong.

Contact CR2 Security today and put proactive protection in place.

CR2 SECURITY TURNS 4 TODAY. ❤️

Four years ago, CR2 Security Group began with something very simple.

3 employees and a belief that we could build something different.

Four years later, it's hard to believe just how far we've come.

From those first few shifts to a seven-figure business, a team of more than 100 people, nearly 100 customers and security operations across some of the UK's biggest festivals, concerts, sporting events and venues.

We've grown. A lot.

But when we look back, it's not the figures that make us most proud.

It's the people.

The people who took a chance on us when we were just starting out.
The people who have stood alongside us through the highs, the lows, the long nights and the difficult days.
The people who have represented CR2 in some of the most demanding environments.
And the customers who trust us to protect what matters most to them.

We've had challenges. We've made mistakes. We've learnt some hard lessons.

But we've never stopped moving forward.

A belief, persistence and a healthy amount of stubbornness have taken us a long way.

What started as a small security company has become a team, a community and a business we're incredibly proud to call CR2 Security Group.

To every member of our team, past and present, every customer, every partner and every person who has supported CR2 along the way, Thank you!

Without you, there is no CR2.

Here's to four years of hard work, growth, challenges, achievements, memories and, most importantly, people.

Happy 4th Birthday to us. 🖤

Four years down. We're only just getting started.

Whilst a large portion of our team are down in Pompey helping out at the amazing victorious festival, some of the others have headed to the O2 arena in London to help our good friends Man commercial Protection with the ringside security for the highly anticipated fight between Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgovic.

What does fair pay have to do with great security? More than you might think. 👀

🎂 BETTER LATE THAN NEVER! 🎂

It may be a little late in the day, but we couldn’t let it pass without wishing Baz a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🥳🎉

And, of course, birthdays can only mean one thing at CR2… CAKE IN THE OFFICE! 🍰

As for whether Baz actually shared his cake with the rest of the team… 🤔

We can neither confirm nor deny any allegations of cake hoarding. 😂

Hope you’ve had a brilliant day, Baz! 🎉🍻

BOOMTOWN 2026 — WHAT A WEEK! 🔥

Over the past week, the CR2 Security Group team have been out in force at Boomtown Festival, covering a huge area of the site and putting in some seriously hard work.

From Lion’s Den, 5 Ways, Quantum, Old Town and Grand Central, through to Thrutopia, Hilltop Plaza, Copperwood Heights and Anara forest — our team have been across the site, keeping people safe, supporting the wider operation and doing what they do best.

The conditions have certainly been testing, but the team continued to show up, crack on and deliver.

A massive thank you to every single person involved. The long hours, miles walked, heat, tiredness and challenging conditions would have tested anyone, but you kept going and represented CR2 brilliantly.

We’re incredibly proud of the effort, professionalism and teamwork shown throughout the week.

Huge effort. Huge operation. Huge team. 👏

Thank you all. You absolutely smashed it. 🖤🧡

🎪 What a weekend! 🍻

Kendal Calling... completed. ✅

A massive thank you to our incredible team who spent the weekend supporting our client, Vision, across their festival bars at Kendal Calling.

From the first customer through the gates to the final drink being served, our staff were there helping to keep everything safe, secure and running smoothly.

Events like these don't happen without dedicated people willing to put in the long hours, deal with whatever comes their way and still do it with a smile. We're incredibly proud of every single member of the CR2 team.

Now it's time to recharge before we do it all again! 💪
