Security services with social value.
Five Force deliver more than simply security, we have a clear social mission – to provide rewarding employment to those who need it. We bring over 160 years of proven social value and are the only major social enterprise in our sector.
Working for us, our colleagues can feel happy that they work for an ethical business that prioritises care for its people and the wider world. And for our customers, working with Five Force enables them to boost their own Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) credentials and demonstrates genuine diverse spend – contributing to those all-important targets.
Five Force is totally unique
Our special Trust based structure means we are free to adjust the way our business works, for the benefit of our colleagues, our customers and our communities.
With no shareholders, any profits generated by our activities are either reinvested back into our business and our people or are donated to one of our charity partners like Combat Stress.
Having a real social impact at our core
‘We’re excited to welcome one of the oldest social enterprises in the country to our membership. Since their origins supporting troops returning from the Crimean war, Five Force Security have shown how a business can have real social impact at its core. Through providing security services for a range of clients from across the private and public sectors they are showing other organisations the real value that can come from partnerships with social enterprise suppliers. We look forward to continuing working with them to help further raise awareness of the benefits of buying social.’’
