IMPORTANT !

Take 3 minutes of your time to watch a very powerful video that was circulated not to long ago.

As part of United protections social support of su***de awareness month it’s key that we make people aware of the importance of checking on people.

The signs aren’t always there , there is no manual or handbook but the power of an hello, how you doing, let’s catch up, talk to me about how things are! This small but significant messages can make the world of difference.

ITS OK NOT TO BE OK! ❤️
YOUR’E NOT ALONE ! 🫶🏼

details on support are at the end of the video!

At times, it can be obvious when someone is struggling to cope. But...

Another audit and another year of Approved ACS status.

It’s been over 12 years since we got our first ACS certificate and as the business grows the foundations of doing the right thing remain the same.

Well done to all the staff and team for helping this happen each year .

Here’s to many more years

When was the last time someone checked in on you?

When was the last time you checked in on someone else?

A call or a simple message is it all it takes to let someone know you care. A small hello, how are you, it’s been a while, hope you’re ok! Is just a small reminder to someone that them being here is important and that someone is thinking about them !

As it’s su***de prevention month a lot of our social media focus will be on this important matter .

As a company we have lost some special friends and colleagues over the last few years through various reasons so we want to get an important message to everyone about the support you can get if the thought of su***de ever crosses your mind .

Below is a link to help . Please use this link and make that first step.

Also is a picture below of the late robin williams. One of the greatest actors and comedians who sadly took his own life .

A thousand smiles on the outside doesn’t erase the pain of what’s on the inside

ITS OK NOT TO BE OK.

Also if anyone needs any help and support feel free to drop us a message

It’s just past midnight and a lot of security staff are finishing their shift on a venue working the bars and clubs . They spend the night looking after people ensuring the safe environment where everyone can enjoy the local nightlife.

Some then go home to maybe an empty house or a world where their problems become a reality again .

Away from the noise , music , lights and busy society someone somewhere will be questioning their worth.

September is su***de awareness month and from everyone at United protection we want to let you know that if you’re reading this and giving up is something that crosses your mind then remember that the world is a better place with you in it and ITS OK NOT TO BE OK !!!

you’re making a positive difference to the world by being in it and although you can never stop the storms you can learn to dance in the rain .

Keep going, it gets better and do these 2 things regularly :

1- talk to someone , anyone , let others know how you’re feeling

2-check in on people , friends, colleagues and family , you could be the person who makes the difference

Not far to go now… 👀

And apparently we’ve picked up a celebrity on the way.

Who knew Phillip Schofield had packed in presenting and retrained in security? 😂

Times are tough in television, apparently. 🤷‍♀️🤣
