Purple Guide for the Events industry Published Date: 01/12/2022

The National Counter Terrorism Security Office has worked closely with The Events Industry Forum on the Purple Guide, offering considerations and advice that event staff can take to counter terrorism.


This chapter within the purple guide helps practitioners to get a further understanding of counter terrorism, and includes topics such as understanding the threat levels, threat types and considerations for event staff to take.

Head of NaCTSO, Adam Thomson said

“At the National Counter Terrorism Security Office we are focused on keeping people safe through our approaches and projects with partners. We are proud to be supporting with this chapter of the Purple Guide and recommend this chapter to all partners and organisations who support us on our mission to counter terrorism. Collaborative working continues to support our efforts, and is showcased through products such as our ProtectUK platform and ProtectUK app. The guidance in this chapter offers useful and detailed recommendations, considerations and advice that can help save lives.”
