ABOUT 1705 CONSULTANCY – SECURITY & EVENT SAFETY EXPERTS

---

At 1705 Consultancy, we don’t just deliver risk management services—we live and breathe them.  Born from a deep-rooted background in law enforcement and public safety, our name, 1705, reflects our origins: a nod to the collar number of our founder during his service in the police.  It’s more than a number; it’s a symbol of our commitment to discipline, responsibility, and the duty to protect.

Our consultancy was founded on the belief that safety and security should never be left to chance.  With decades of combined experience in policing, emergency response, and operational command, we bring a unique, real-world understanding to every risk we assess and every strategy we build.

We specialise in comprehensive risk management solutions that support a wide range of clients—whether you're running a local community event, managing a nationally significant venue, or responsible for organisational resilience across complex environments.  Our team works closely with you to identify potential threats, assess vulnerabilities, and design tailored, actionable strategies to mitigate them.

From event safety planning, emergency preparedness, and security threat assessments, to regulatory compliance, Martyn’s Law readiness, and crowd risk analysis, our approach is holistic, proactive, and always focused on protecting people, assets, and reputations.

We’re passionate about what we do because we know the difference it makes—a safe, secure environment isn’t just good practice; it’s a responsibility.  Our clients trust us not just for our expertise, but for our unwavering commitment to doing the right thing, the right way.

At 1705 Consultancy, risk management isn’t a box-ticking exercise—it’s a culture,  and we are here to help you build it, embed it, and lead with confidence.

At 1705 Consultancy, risk management is more than a process—it’s a partnership rooted in trust, insight, and a deep understanding of real-world challenges.  We know that no two operations, venues, or events are the same. That’s why our first priority is to listen—understanding the specific pressures, responsibilities, and risks you face.

Drawing from decades of frontline experience in policing, public safety, and operational planning, our team approaches every project with precision and purpose.  We start by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your environment, identifying potential threats, vulnerabilities, and compliance obligations.  But we don’t stop at identification—we turn insight into practical, tailored strategies that genuinely work for your context.

Whether you're preparing for a major public event, managing a corporate site, or aligning with regulations like Martyn’s Law, we provide clear, actionable guidance that reflects current legislation, industry best practice, and the evolving nature of risk.

What sets us apart is our commitment to ongoing support and adaptability. The security landscape doesn’t stand still, and neither do we.  Our team remains constantly informed of changes in law, guidance, and threat trends—so you stay ahead, not just compliant.

At 1705, we bring the discipline of our enforcement background, the empathy of lived experience, and the clarity of expert consultancy.  We are proud to stand beside our clients as a trusted ally in building safer, more resilient environments—today and for the future.
