First Response Group

As the wheels begin to turn on 2025, we’d like to send a huge 'Thank you' to all our front line colleagues, control centre operators, enginners and operations teams who worked hard to ensure the safety of people and assets over the Christmas and New Year period. Here's to an EPIC 2025! #ThankYou #TeamFRG #FrontLine #EPIC

Vigilance throughout these winter months and the foreseeable future remains essential. The licensed security sector plays a critical part in public safety and responding to threats as and when they occur.  You can help in keeping everyone around you safe by being vigilant about your surroundings. If you see something that doesn’t feel right, please report to the nearest SIA licensed security operative, staff at the venue or police.   You can also report in confidence at gov.uk/act  In an emergency call 999

In this festive season, like all other seasons, many licensed security operatives will be working and keeping the public safe in towns and cities across the UK.  If you are out and about and see something that doesn’t feel right, report it to the nearest SIA licensed security operative, staff at the venue or police.  You can also report in confidence at gov.uk/act In an emergency call 999 

🎄 Merry Christmas from First Response Group! 🎄 We’re excited to unveil our official Christmas e-card, featuring a festive design from our talented competition winner, Tia Wormald, age 10. Tia’s sparkly creation captures the magic of Christmas, showcasing our M-PIDS (Mobile Perimeter Intruder Detection System) protecting a snowy village on Christmas Eve. Look closely, and you’ll spot a nod to our EPIC values, which underpin everything we do at FRG! Our usual lines of communication remain open throughout the festive season, so Team FRG is here to assist with any support you may need. We wish you a very Merry Christmas and a successful 2025! ✨ #MerryChristmas #TeamFRG #ChristmasCard

This festive season, Team FRG is proud to support three incredible local charities making a real difference in our communities: Chiltern Foodbank provides emergency food supplies to individuals and families in the area, ensuring that no one goes hungry. Over the past twelve months, they have provided more than 31,500 meals to local people in need, with over a third of those meals going to children. Aberdeen North Foodbank serves the North East of Scotland, working to eradicate food poverty and supporting local people in crisis with essential food and resources during difficult times. Focus4Hope is a community-driven charity offering emergency food and support to individuals and families facing crisis across West Yorkshire. Alongside a range of impactful services, their Big Christmas Project ensures that vulnerable families have food on their tables this Christmas. Across our Leeds, Chesham, and Aberdeen offices, Team FRG has donated food items to help these charities provide crucial assistance to those who need it most across the Christmas period. Thank you to everyone who has donated to our collection points, and to Emily Holman, Lucy Estall, Hannah MacLeod, Magda Hein and Dannii Wood-Wright for co-ordinating donations and drop offs to the charities. #CommunitySupport #Foodbanks #GivingBack #TeamFRG #EPIC

Over the past few weeks, Team FRG has been generously donating toys for our Mission Christmas Cash for Kids appeal. Today marked gift drop-off day for our Leeds and Chesham offices! These donations will soon bring smiles to children from families facing challenging times, helping to make their Christmas truly magical. But there's still time to spread the magic! 🌟 You can donate via our online fundraising page: https://lnkd.in/evBFwjeJ Every donation will directly support Mission Christmas Cash for Kids to buy gifts for children who might otherwise wake up on Christmas morning with nothing under the tree. Your generosity also supports the charity’s incredible work all year round. A huge thank you to everyone at FRG who has supported this appeal, and a special shoutout to Michael Wormald for championing this initiative! Let’s keep making an EPIC difference together. #MissionChristmas #CashForKids #Community #Fundraising #EPIC
