Remain vigilant
This is a reminder that attacks can take place anywhere and without warning, therefore we ask all of our partners and stakeholders to remain alert, but not alarmed.
As ever we ask the business community and members of the public to remain vigilant and if they see anything that doesn’t look or feel right to contact the police or report it to security staff.
Instances such as the Manchester attack highlight the need for regular reviews of an organisation’s readiness and response plans.
