Event stewarding & crowd management

Trained stewards for ingress, egress, car parks, information points and crowd flow, working alongside our SIA-licensed security teams.

Crowd management & stewarding

Moving people safely

Large events depend on people moving where they need to be without crushes, confusion or long waits. Stewards guide guests in and out, manage car parks and walkways, staff information points and watch for anyone who needs help.

Where an event needs both, we supply stewards and licensed security under one supervisor, so there's one plan, one radio net and one point of contact.

Crowd management & stewarding FAQs

Ask a question
What is the difference between a steward and a security officer?

Stewards guide and help the public and do not need an SIA licence when doing only that. Security officers guard against unauthorised access, damage or disorder, which needs an SIA licence. Most events need some of each.

Can you supply stewards and security together?

Yes, under one supervisor and one plan.

Do your stewards hold qualifications?

We'll confirm the training and qualifications of the team assigned to your event when we quote.
