What is residential close protection?

Residential close protection in South Kensington — securing the home and the people in it, combining CP officers with residential security measures.

As part of our wider close protection in South Kensington, 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.
