Public sector security in Surrey

Surrey County Council and its eleven borough and district councils manage a substantial portfolio of public-facing buildings, from large civic centres in Guildford and Woking to smaller community libraries and council offices in market towns across the county. Surrey's public sector estate also includes significant NHS provision through Surrey Heartlands and Frimley health trusts.

Surrey's public sector organisations benefit from well-developed procurement frameworks, and several operate active estates rationalisation programmes — bringing older buildings up to modern security standards as part of wider refurbishment projects. This creates natural opportunities to integrate modern security systems at the design stage rather than as retrofit afterthoughts.

Surrey's managed public spaces — including the town centres of Guildford, Woking, Reigate and Epsom — host regular civic events and seasonal markets. Those events are only qualifying events under Martyn's Law where they are open to the public, have entry controls such as tickets or paid entry, and 800 or more people may be present, even where the permanent buildings are not themselves in scope. Understanding how event-based obligations interact with permanent building obligations is an area where we can help.

Local Knowledge

Surrey — what we know about your area

Several of Surrey's largest civic buildings are in towns with significant heritage conservation areas, where external CCTV fixings and cable routes require careful consideration of planning constraints. Guildford's medieval town centre and Farnham's historic core both require a wireless-first approach to security installations. We have specific experience delivering CCTV and access control in these environments.

Whatever the specific challenges of your estate and area, the starting point is the same: a free survey, a written assessment, and an honest conversation about what your buildings need and what it will cost.
