What is William Reed AllSecure?
William Reed has worked closely with association partners including the Association of Event Organisers to develop industry-wide AllSecure standards. William Reed AllSecure outlines how these measures and guidelines will be put in place, designed to provide the highest levels of hygiene and safety. These practical steps allow exhibitions running as part of The UK Food & Drink Shows, to operate safely. They also give those attending The UK Food & Drink Shows reassurance and confidence they are participating in an environment that is effectively controlled, safe and run according to official government and local authority guidance. |
