The team at First2HelpYou would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and prosperous New Year. We would like to thank you for your continued support and we look forward to being of service to you in 2021.
Our Opening ours during Christmas and New Year can be found below. All device / app users will continue to receive 24/7/365 support from our Alarm Receiving Centre.
Thanks to social distancing laws and practices many more of us are now lone working, leaving our personal safety vulnerable.
Lone working is working without the direct supervision of a superior
or manager. A lone worker doesn’t have to be solitary to be considered a lone
worker.
As an essential service, we are here to keep your staff safe. During the lockdown period we will remain open for new and exiting customers.
As you would expect, the safety of our employees and customers is our top priority and whether home, office or remotely based we are making sure our employees stay safe with measures you have already come to know over the past few months.
We will keep you up to date should anything change, but for now, keep yourselves, families, friends and colleagues safe.
Should you have any questions or require any support with lone worker products / service, please do not hesitate to contact the team.
Keeping your staff safe is your legal obligation as their
employer. Your staff safety practices will depend on the activities your staff
do and the environment in which they will be doing it.

As you will be very aware from recent Government and Media output, the country is experiencing a daily increase in the number of cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19) being reported. In response to this country wide health emergency, we at First2HelpYou have drawn up the following response to provide our customers with information regarding our Service Continuity Plans and we would like to inform all our customers that First2HelpYou are operating ‘business as usual’.
Welcome to First2HelpYou and our blog. We are a new business to enter the lone worker alarms market and we are delighted to just this week, bring our innovative products and service offering to the table. We might be the new kids on the block, but with a few industry experienced brains working away in the background we naturally decided to establish a blog and a knowledge bank, where we can talk about all things lone workerish.
