First Response Group (FRG), a national security firm, has become a member of three prominent security industry organizations, including the global terrorism information network TiNYg. TiNYg focuses on raising awareness of global terrorism threats by connecting experts from around the world in a secure and trusted environment.
In addition to joining TiNYg, FRG has also become a part of the City Security Council (CSC) and the City of London Crime Prevention Association (CoLCPA). The CSC was established to promote collaboration between city-based security firms and the City of London Police, and has since expanded to include security companies from beyond London. This broader participation helps to enhance responses to terrorism, crises, and emergencies. Similarly, CoLCPA serves as a vital communication network for crime prevention within communities.
Barry Dawson, FRG’s group managing director said of the ,move, “We are delighted to become part of a wider network of security professionals, bridging the gap between threat actors, police and the communities we serve.
“As threat levels increase, it is vital we tap into the very latest thinking, experience and connections which, in turn, enables us to better support our clients in the industries they serve. Increasingly, security officers are being asked to support the police, and first responders more in their operations, and we have moved to ensure our own officers are trained and equipped to the highest levels to comply. Engaging with like-minded professionals and being able to share knowledge and best practice through organisations such as these, helps us to do just that.”
Founder and International Chairman of TiNYg, David Evans, commented, “We are delighted to welcome the FRG team as a premium partner of our organisation. I have known Barry Dawson for 20 years and know how he and his team at FRG will be committed to moving our relationship forward for the benefit of national and indeed international security. It’s a great addition to our organisation and to our wider network, which includes some the leading movers in global security operations, representing police, government and the independent security industry.”
