Physical security for Berkshire councils, NHS trusts, civic buildings and public spaces. Specialist in Martyn's Law compliance, UK GDPR and public sector procurement. Free site survey available.
Berkshire's six unitary authorities — Reading, Slough, Windsor and Maidenhead, Bracknell Forest, Wokingham and West Berkshire — each operate their public sector estates independently, creating a varied procurement landscape. Reading's civic infrastructure, Slough's dense urban estate and Windsor's unique royal and civic overlay each present distinct security requirements.
Windsor and Maidenhead Borough Council manages one of the most scrutinised public sector security environments in England. The proximity of Windsor Castle, the frequency of royal events and the volume of international visitors to the town create a security context that is unlike any other district council in the country. The council's civic buildings and managed public spaces sit firmly in Martyn's Law Enhanced Tier.
Reading's civic and cultural facilities — including the Hexagon Theatre, Reading Museum and the civic centre complex — host large public events regularly throughout the year. Reading is also a major commuter town with civic spaces that serve as transit points for large numbers of people, adding to the Martyn's Law complexity for the council's estate managers.

View Solar Tower →Berkshire has a higher-than-average concentration of technology company headquarters, many of which are located near public sector buildings and civic spaces. This creates specific considerations around ANPR and vehicle access management in areas where corporate campuses and civic facilities share perimeter zones. Several Berkshire councils have already begun looking at integrated access management solutions that cover both civic visitor management and vehicle access control.
