Urban Unrest Training

This course is designed to allow you to work in environments that are generally not considered to be at risk such as filming public events. Based on incidents such as the 2011 Summer riots and the Arab Spring, this training is designed to allow you and your team to manage your own safety and security in situations that change rapidly from benign to hostile.

Emphasis is on planning and preparation, identifying personal and team safety issues and how to avoid trouble altogether. We look at crowd dynamics, techniques to defuse situations and provide an overview of simple and effective, personal protective equipment (PPE).

All our training is practically based and will take you from dealing with aggressive individuals through to flash mobs and full riot situations which employ security forces tactics and the use of weapons.
