WADE BUILDING SUPPLIES | GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL SHOWING TEMPORARY FENCING IN PLACE

Event & Festival Temporary Fencing

 

Every year across the UK, especially in Spring and Summer us brits love to flock to Outdoor Events, including Music Festivals, Food Festivals, Car Boot Sales, and Sporting Events.

This means Organisers across the UK will put in place Safety and Security Fencing using Temporary Fencing Solutions.

Upcoming changes to Government Legislation, known as The Protect Duty, will expand on Martyns Law which was campaigned for by the Brave Mother of a 2017 Manchester Arena Victim.

The new Legislation will mean Crowd Control will become under stricter control and include crowd control at smaller events.

This will likely include Venues with a Smaller Capacity of over One Hundred.

Security Fencing and Temporary Fencing will play a Key Part in ensuring Venues are Safe and Secure.
