Corporate Social Responsibility
SyI’s First Pride Social:
Birmingham 2021
The Security Institute was proud to host
our Pride social event, at Birmingham
Pride. Taking place in late September,
after being post-poned from May, our
Inclusive Security SIG was in full force
ahead of the Rainbow Group’s launch in
November.
In 2022 we are hoping to hold more events
like this, and present a more visible face
for the security sector at Pride events.
If you would like to get involved in
the new Rainbow Group please email

Engaging with ‘Secure
Future’ Graduates
In April, we were happy to host 27 young
people on our inaugural ‘Secure Futures’
programme, a security careers programme for
young people on low income backgrounds.
As part of the programme, the Institute
offered a year of free membership to each
graduate when they turned 18. We are looking
forward to having these fantastic young people
contributing to the Institute, and were pleased
to host some of our graduates at this year’s
Annual Conference - with our Vice Chair Paul
Barnard CSyP MSyI guiding them around.
