Operational Support and Advisory

Experienced people, deployed where it matters

We put former police, emergency services and counter terrorism professionals on the ground at your event or operation, so the people responsible for public safety are the people who have done it for real.

When something goes wrong at a public event, the difference between a controlled response and a crisis is usually the experience of the people making decisions in the moment.

1705 Consultancy deploys that experience directly into your operation. From advice and command through to the teams on the ground, we can cover your whole event under one trusted supplier.

Advice and command

Expertise at the top of your operation


Event Safety Advisers

Practical safety planning and management for events of any scale. We support your Safety Advisory Group submissions, build your event safety plan, and provide qualified safety advisers on site to manage risk as the day unfolds.

More on our event consultancy

Blue Light and Multi Agency Liaison

Someone has to speak both languages when the emergency services work alongside your operation, and our people have sat on the other side of that table. We integrate your event with police, fire and ambulance and can sit within or alongside your incident suite when it counts.

Counter Terrorism Advisers

Under Martyn's Law, publicly accessible events carry real responsibilities. Our advisers help you meet them with proportionate, defensible measures, including on site protective security advice, hostile reconnaissance detection, and planning that stands up to a regulator or a coroner.

Specialist Support

Some requirements do not fit a standard box. Sensitive operations, unusual threats, short notice deployments, or a problem you simply need experienced heads on. Tell us what you are dealing with and we will build the right team around it.

People on the ground

Deployable teams and personnel


Beyond advice, we supply the people who deliver on the day. Vetted, trained and coordinated as one team, so you deal with a single supplier rather than a dozen.

Close Protection

SIA licensed close protection operatives and teams, for individuals, events and higher risk deployments.

Stewards & Event Staff

Trained stewards and event staff, with SIA licensed security personnel where the role requires it.

Drivers & Logistics

Security aware drivers and logistics support, from single movements to full event fleets.

CQC Medical Teams

CQC registered medical teams as frontline event medics, embedded within close protection teams, as covert medics, or deployed into hostile environments.

Why 1705

We have done this for real, not from a textbook

Every person we deploy brings decades of frontline policing, emergency response and counter terrorism experience. That is the difference between a plan on paper and a team who know exactly what to do when the pressure arrives.
