Why we exist
Good people deserve to come home safe
Personal Safety Partnership started with a simple belief: good people deserve to go to work, and come home, safe. Our founder spent over a decade in senior custodial operations, where conflict, risk and the use of force are daily realities, not theory.
Prevent, Support, Protect
Our mission is to give you the knowledge base, communication skills and physical tools you need in your toolbox to reduce the risk of becoming a victim of violence, and to keep good people safer.
Communication and de-escalation come first. Physical skills come last, and only where they are lawful, necessary and proportionate.
01 — FIRST
Communication
02 — THEN
De-escalation
03 — LAST
Physical skills
Only where lawful, necessary and proportionate.
Our standards
Four standards behind every course

We build every course around the real settings, risks and people you work with.
Ethical
We put communication and de-escalation first, and the dignity and safety of everyone involved at the centre.
Appropriate
Physical skills are taught only where they are lawful, necessary and proportionate.
Honest
We tell you plainly what a course will and will not cover, with no overpromising.
