You know how people ask for advice but don’t take it? I get that all the time. Last week, a prospective client rang me to book 1 guard for a party of 270 teens – with just 4 adult helpers. As you may imagine, my initial response was, ‘Are you crazy?’ I then told…
I have looked at many options to ensure young adult parties are safe. Options such as external cameras, increased staff and providing a stringent plan in regards to alcohol management, however the issue with drugs is increasing at many of our youth events.

It is alleged that a number of patrons were issued with ‘on the spot’ fines however no…
Yesterday my daughter returned home from the Stereosonic Festival in Melbourne. She was as red as a beetroot. ! Yesterday, I sent her multiple messages to drink plenty of water. I guess I also should have reminded her to apply the sun screen that was freely available !! As a mother you never stop…
