Doorsafe

Doorsafe is a York SU-run security resource which we utilise for York SU and student-led events when necessary. Whether or not you require Doorsafe depends on your event, and will be decided in response to your EMF by Geoff (Health, Safety and Logistics Manager). 

There is a cost to using Doorsafe which will be chargeable to your student group. If we decide that your event needs Doorsafe, it cannot go ahead without the provision.

Most events will not require Doorsafe, but if you are unsure please contact Geoff by emailing g.ward@yorksu.org. 

You may require Doorsafe if:

• It is taking place in a licensed venue;

• It is a closed or ticketed event;

• There are concerns about possible breaches of venue capacity;

• There are concerns about the security of the activity, speaker or general event.

Doorsafe works at roughly 1 staff member to 100 attendees and is £19 (+VAT) per staff member per hour, for a minimum of 4 hours and 2 staff. Make sure Doorsafe is included in your event budget if it may be required. For more information, contact Geoff.
