The UK police are great at how they deal with these situations as you can see by the link bellow, It’s just not realistic to believe that the police can provide protection for life and property to everybody in the UK at all times.
Violent home invasions and robberies are becoming increasingly common and are on the rise in London and the home counties, High Net Worth people are being targeted by organized crime gangs and the police in some areas are struggling to deal with the sheer volume of cases.
High profile and high net worth people really need to invest in their personal and residential security before it’s too late.
CCTV, lighting and technical equipment alone will not stop an attack on your home it will only make it less appealing to the criminals.
May 2020, during the first lockdown, one of the gang, pretended to be a delivery driver and rang the doorbell at about 9.30pm at the family's home in East London, a man can be seen approaching the front door dressed in a delivery driver uniform and carrying a parcel.
As the owner went to take the parcel, he was told "no, Covid", and the driver placed it on the floor whilst bending down to retrieve it, he was violently attacked by the man who then ran into the house with a knife, while three hooded figures followed with their weapons drawn.

HOSTILE RECCONAISSANCE
A crime gang or burglar will be smarter than you think and do their research well in advance before targeting a house. This can be anywhere between a few days to a couple of weeks.
Hostile reconnaissance is the term given to the information-gathering phase conducted by those individuals or groups with malicious intent, it is a vital component of the criminal planning process.
The Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure (CPNI) defines hostile reconnaissance as “Purposeful observation with the intention of collecting information to inform the planning of a hostile act against a specific target.” Generally, the more sophisticated the attack, the more complex the attack planning, and consequently the greater the information requirement and reconnaissance need.
The hostile will try to obtain detailed information to sufficiently inform their method of attack and increase the likelihood of success.
An organised criminal gang are not going to be intimidated by CCTV as they know 9 times out of 10 it’s not being monitored, if you leave in a rural area and the police response times are long the criminals will know that they will be in and out of your home in a matter of minutes and then of course the criminals could always storm your house while it is occupied, one such event springs to mind in East London, An 11-year-old boy was shot, his dad stabbed in the head and his mum had her throat cut as thugs burst into their home after one of them posed as a delivery driver.
If you have a good security team on your property there is a physical, proactive and reactive deterrent that is aware and constantly ready to protect your family.
We always look into the compatibility angle and ensure that all our Close Protection Operatives are fully attuned with those they protect, they actively work for their clients and enhance the security of the individuals they are asked to guard.
Good physical security is expensive but is always less expensive that loosing assets through theft, and you can’t put a price on your family’s safety and peace of mind.
