CLIPPINGS AND MUSINGS HELEN DUVAL - MARCH 2019
Security is a continually hot topic as violent crime and burglary figures continue to rise. A number of exhibitions in March are showcasing the latest technological developments and allowing businesses and consumers to evaluate new automated systems that could provide greater security around the home and business environments. The SCT expo at Olympia this year presented full security solutions for professionals responsible for protecting businesses and people across the UK. The UK Security Week exhibition was held over two days and now incorporates 5 events with over 350 exhibitors. Additionally, more than 10,000 security professionals took part in an immersive learning programme to discover the very latest in security technology. With a focus on areas such as forensics and counter terrorism and a greatly increased footfall this year, it does make you think about our vulnerability and staying safe, in a whole new way. Turning to home security, when a house alarm suddenly explodes into klaxonic noise, and Police cars do not come screeching down the road, what should really be expected from home security systems, should an opportunistic burglar strike?
In light of the fact that there are still many systems out there that have not been upgraded for quite some time, it does make me question what any of us do when we hear a house alarm in full flow. It would seem we just wait. Watch a little while and then wait a little longer. Many seem to presume, that irrespective of the time that has passed, that somewhere along the line the Police or a private security company have been notified and any potential burglary stopped in its tracks. I wonder how many people with older alarm systems that are not linked into the police or video verification systems, realise the true vulnerability of their properties. While addons to alarm systems such as sensors, heating and plumbing monitors, and services that provide medical assistance expand the use and value of security systems, a combination of security measures seems to be the answer along with an annual check on the locks and bolts and any necessary upgrades. Some security systems do give customers a sense of efficiency with highly effective monitoring centres, while others promote the idea of ensuring products are coded properly, so if there is a technical fault it can easily be found.

As a nonprofit making body the MLA has established benchmarks for the industry that promote good standards of conduct, practice and materials within the trade. Actively encouraging members to maintain and improve their skills via training, education, regional meetings and seminars, the MLA has introduced solid platforms for those looking to enter the locksmithing profession. It operates its own scheme, which is recognised by the Home Office, insurers and the Police. Yet the sector remains unlicensed. Access to accredited training courses may give some reassurance in the long run to end users, however many who have been locksmiths for years question the validity of credentials that can be gained in 2 - 7 days. A licence would seem to be the preferred route alongside work inspections and a paid membership that would demonstrate adherence to the craft involved. Some feel that those offering training courses could set a good example by allowing inspections of the courses offered. This would demonstrate the quality standards of the teaching and assessment provided during training programmes; it would also validate standards and give those with years of experience the support they need to further develop their own businesses.
Barking dogs may still seem a great additional deterrent but it’s been shown that experienced burglars know how to bypass the pet. Combining tried, tested and trusted security systems including multipoint locks, dead bolts, cctv, security gates and home automation continue to be the preferred winning formula. These prevent the need for Police notification or intervention. The fact remains that prevention is evidently better than cure. Without doubt, events such as the UK Security Week bring together those with a common goal of providing improved security options and reassurance at a time when nationally, it has never been more needed. Looking at general home security and locks discussion continues about Locksmith regulation and whether it is required. There certainly are many forums and discussion groups out there with the highly trained locksmiths all posting pictures of shoddy workmanship. Costs, time and standards have all become a focus for the locksmith trade, with some real concern regarding unqualified people completing jobs for unsuspecting homeowners. The Master Locksmiths Association (MLA) has taken huge strides to introduce regulation and is currently the UK’s largest trade association for locksmiths to join.

MORLEY GLASS & GLAZING SUPPORTS 20 CHARITIES IN 20TH YEAR Integral blinds manufacturer Morley Glass & Glazing has supported more than 20 charities during its 20th anniversary year. Ian Short, managing director of Morley Glass & Glazing said: “As a successful business we’ve always felt that we should give back where we can and have always done so throughout our 20 years. We’ve made a special effort in our 20th anniversary to help even more good causes in our local community and beyond, with cash or in-kind donations.
“We’ve supported a wide range of well-deserving organisations from grass roots sports clubs and dance societies to large charities and more local good causes.
It is tremendously rewarding to see how, what can be a relatively small contribution, can make a huge difference to so many people – and we’d encourage other businesses to do the same.
“A personal highlight was to see the donation of a Variety Sunshine Coach to Mill Field Primary School, as the result of me learning the Samba ad taking part in (and winning) the Variety Strictly Ballroom Challenge last year. I felt truly humbled that so many people took the time and effort to sponsor and support me.” Recent donations by the business have made it possible for Freedom to Dance to offer a new dancing scholarship, allowed Moortown Rugby Club to resurface one of its pitches and provided a youth charity with improved gym facilities.

BLEISURE! - THE OFFICIAL WORD FOR BUSINESS TRAVEL
There is a new ‘B’ word out there and for today’s busy execs traveling the length and breadth of the country as well as internationally, it is a welcome one -Bleisure! While many senior executives over the age of 45 have been practicing the art of Bleisure for some time, millennials have been quick to catch on and now some even insist that this is the way they will do business in the 21st Century. The idea of bringing business and travel together has actually been around for quite some time, but it is garnering a real popularity, particularly with the next generation of executives and directors, and the term has now even found its way into some dictionaries. Most people are rejecting relentless travelling towards standardised, bleak hotel rooms, preferring instead to include a little culture on their journeys and to stay somewhere they can actually relax at the end of a long car journey. Some top executives are even demanding that their trips become more culturally enhanced with ‘bleisure’ now fast becoming a business ‘must have.’
As a travel trend bleisure allows people to add a couple of days around a business trip to be able to completely reinvigorate themselves while on the road. With healthy minds being a big topic of discussion it also ties in well to the ethos of a good work-life balance, that is not just for the senior executives. The idea of a healthy body and mind is gathering pace with the need to switch off and relax being proven to be important all round. CEOs are recognising that there is a need to support this type of business travel for their staff as it gets the best out of employees. Incorporating holiday time at the beginning or end of a business trip does not blur the boundaries of the business, if anything it recharges the batteries to push harder for the deal. So it should be guilt free. With so many people now being instantly accessible on phones and laptops, with texts and emails pinging through their notifications almost 24 hours a day, there is perhaps a need, more than ever before, to have some real downtime. Naturally travelling for work can be exhausting with early morning flights, long motorway jaunts and late night international

conference calls, all of us are only a ping away from urgent work that needs to be done when the work meter is running. As more companies acknowledge the stresses and strains of work without breaks, being able to mesh working duties with a little rest and relaxation makes work a lot more enjoyable and undoubtedly even more fruitful, with many employers paying closer attention to what is good for their team. Statistics show that millennials are taking life at a much more leisurely pace and are taking full advantage of the technology they have been raised on, by adapting it to work for them rather than the other way round. It seems a perfectly natural option for them to take work with them as they enjoy the Bleisure experience and a more stable work-life balance.
So next time there is a long journey on the cards think about the length of the trip, the location and all that is expected to be achieved. Evaluating time and looking at ways to personalise each trip will make it a unique rather than mundane experience. Even for the most seasoned traveller work can be fun by optimising the time spent away from home. Trivago, Skyscanner and Expedia to name a few, have been around for quite some time and offer simultaneous booking options, with Tripadvisor allowing the experienced travellers to share and suggest about their best Bleisure experiences. For the more luxurious business trip then companies such as www.worldtravelservice.com or www.prestigetravel.com promise personalised attention. As business trips become lengthened and incorporated into short vacations, bleisure is now a lifestyle choice for many executives!
