"Kieran was the best front-of-house SIA security staff member we have worked with for years. He was attentive in what was going on, helpful and approachable with the customers.

We provided 24-hour response and lockout services for Beyond the Box Student, a student accommodation provider in Essex. Their model features all-inclusive, fully-furnished private student rooms with extraordinary service that helps build a real community. The site’s offering includes individual studios through to 6-person accommodation.

FDS has continued to exceed client expectations in offering premium home goods at affordable prices since 2008. Based at Port One Logistics Park in Great Blakenham, FDS import thousands of household products through the Port of Felixstowe. As the business expanded, they wanted to partner with a trusted local security provider capable of meeting their requirements. Stage has supported the business since 2022.

Our event security team ensured the successful running of multiple events at Wherstead Park, a Grade-II listed Georgian mansion nestled in the heart of the Suffolk countryside. It is one of East Anglia's most popular and versatile venues for weddings, conferences, events, parties and filming. In addition to being the headquarters for the Co-op Group, it houses many other businesses on-site.


Launched in 2014, The Women's Tour is an international team cycling competition that covers almost 600km (370 miles) over five stages on consecutive days. Our brief was to provide safe start and finish conditions for the racers, a task that entailed working in 10 towns across East Anglia. We developed effective, location-specific crowd-control strategies and created secure areas for vehicles, bicycles, and competitors before and after each stage.

The Riverside Centre is a popular licensed venue in Chelmsford, offering a variety of events and leisure pursuits. We provide effective door supervision and venue security consultancy.


Clacton Air Show is an annual event held between Clacton Pier and the Martello Tower. Typically, the two-day event attracts audiences of around 200,000. Recognising a need to maintain a safe public environment, Tendering District Council appointed Stage Security to provide SIA-licensed security staff to help manage the event on the day and to provide overnight security for the event arena, the exhibitors and their goods.
