Bodyguards in Portswood — professional personal protection that stays close, stays alert and stays discreet, for as long as you need.
As part of our wider close protection in Portswood, this service is delivered by officers who are trained, licensed and briefed specifically to your premises. Close protection (CP) is the professional protection of a person from harm, harassment or intrusion. It combines advance reconnaissance, secure travel, residential security and a trained CP officer or team who manage risk discreetly.
Local knowledge matters. Our officers work regularly across Portswood and South East, so they understand the area's layout, its busy periods and the kinds of incidents that occur — and that shapes how we plan your bodyguards.

If that sounds like your situation in Portswood, we can help — and there's no job too small or too large.
