Maldon Festival lock up a Secure Communities Award from Burg-Wächter
Burg-Wächter is on song with its
new scheme supporting local community projects, as it awards The Maldon
Festival £500 plus advice and products to help keep the Festival running
securely.
Being part of an active and
thriving community helps make people feel secure and safe as individuals, which
is why encouraging and protecting such communities is the principle behind the Burg-Wächter Secure Communities Scheme. The Maldon Festival is an important community
event for the town and local region.
Over the fortnight, the Festival is faced by a variety of security
challenges, including managing remote venues, securing exhibition areas and
protecting props and equipment over the fortnight. Burg-Wächter provides products that keep
people’s home, businesses, property, equipment and precious items safe and
secure. Having analysed the Festival’s
requirements, the award includes a BURGcam video surveillance camera plus
padlocks, security chains, locking cables and a cash box.
The 2019 Maldon Festival runs for a
fortnight from 22nd June to 6th July. With venues including the romantic and remote
Mundon church to the Tai Chi Hall, Moot Hall, All Saints Church and St Mary’s
Church, the security aspect of running a multi-venue festival was one of the
key factors in applying for a Secure Communities Scheme award. The Director of the Maldon Festival, Colin
Baldy commented. “The receipt of £500 to
support the Festival overall, as well as products such as surveillance cameras
and solutions which allow us to physically secure storage and equipment is very
welcome. It has helped to secure and
protect the running of the Festival financially and physically! This is a very practical and useful award and
we are grateful to Burg-Wächter for its support.”
The Maldon Festival’s programme covers a wide range of music and art,
all of which reflect this year’s theme of The Animal Kingdom. With folk, jazz, orchestral and choral works
on offer alongside drumming master-classes and political debates, there is
something to appeal to everyone. For
