What is bodyguards?

Bodyguards in Scotland — professional personal protection that stays close, stays alert and stays discreet, for as long as you need.

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. Every bodyguards assignment in Scotland is planned around your site, your risks and your budget — never a one-size-fits-all package.

Why Scotland businesses need bodyguards

From busy commercial districts to quieter sites on the edge of South West, Scotland needs security that fits its surroundings. We assess your premises, agree exactly what cover looks like, and put licensed officers in place who can respond quickly across Scotland and the neighbouring areas.
