UKCMA 2025

Wise Security is proud to have participated in the United Kingdom Crowd Management Association’s (UKCMA) Safer Crowds, Safer Venues 2025 Conference, held at Middlesbrough Town Hall. This event, which follows the immensely successful inaugural conference in 2024, brought together professionals from various sectors to educate, inspire, and inform those involved in crowd management, security, and event planning.

The conference featured an impressive lineup of speakers, including B. J. Harrington, QPM, Chief Constable of Essex Police, and Michelle Russell, Chief Executive of the Security Industry Authority. Their motivational talks provided valuable insights and knowledge, leaving attendees feeling informed and empowered.

A special congratulations to Anne Marie Chebib and the brilliant UKCMA team for organising such a remarkable event. Your dedication and hard work truly made this conference a success.

Our directors, James and Leeanne Wise, were honoured to represent Wise Security at the conference. It was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old friends and colleagues, catching up on both life and work. Meeting new faces was equally rewarding, as we shared experiences and built new connections.

James Wise Commented: Although it may have seemed like we were surrounded by competitors, the reality is quite the opposite. We are all united in our mission to create a safer environment for our staff, colleagues, and most importantly, the public who rely on us.

It was a privilege to share the room with such dedicated professionals, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration to ensure safer crowds and venues for everyone.
