Kick off your membership with the Security Institute in style. Now that you've completed your joining process with us, we'd love to meet you! Come and find out what's available in your Institute and how to access it, and let's get to know each other. This event will be hosted by the membership engagement team, and diaries permitting you will be able to meet some of the elected Board and existing members, as well as other new members. Please don't worry if you don't know anyone yet - you soon will and we'll be on hand to make you feel welcome and introduce you around. We know it can be difficult to get started with your networking, but we're a friendly bunch and we hope you'll soon get to know us. You'll be given a name badge but we suggest you bring a supply of business cards to swap! There'll be a drink on arrival and a short presentation, then we'll grab a delicious pie and an optional glass or two. This event is for Security Institute members only and numbers are limited.

Charity

Every year the Security Institute Chairman chooses a charity partner that the Institute supports. This year we are proud to support Send a Cow.

Send a Cow was set up by a group of Christian dairy farmers from the UK in 1988. Outraged at EU milk quotas, which were forcing them to slaughter healthy dairy cows, and in response to an appeal from Uganda for milk, they embarked on a project, which was set to become an innovative and practical charity. Uganda was just emerging from a long civil war, communities and their farmland had been destroyed and much of the country’s livestock wiped out. Several of the UK farmers flew to Africa to investigate how they could help.

In 2017 the charity Emerge Poverty Free merged with Send a Cow. Together they support even more families in Africa, empowering them to secure their own futures and helping them to lift themselves from poverty.
