The Man-Against-Machine concept was brough back to PE! The challenge was to beat the Bus in the ultimate test of endurance and teamwork in the Algoa Bus Bay to Bay Challenge! The 100km Bay to Bay Challenge took place on Saturday 8th November. Atlas Security entered two 6-person corporate relay teams for the Algoa Bus Bay To Bay Challenge. This event was about camaraderie, fellowship, perseverance, challenge, support, care, tears and frustration, reaching a goal, doing something that you've never attempted in your life before AND making a real change in someone's life!

Atlas actively works in conjunction with the SAPS and receives regular updates from the police in respect of gang activity and stolen vehicles. This information is then radio despatched to our Reaction Units who can assist in completing the information sharing loop by being the 'eyes & ears' for the police. Port Elizabeth's new Task Team paid a visit to the Atlas Alarm Control Centre. This team make up Port Elizabeth's new Rapid Response Task Team and is lead by Captain Rassi Erasmus. They are tasked to address serious crimes in the Metro including Armed Robberies, Cash-in-transit and ATM Heists. They will work closely with the crime pattern and crime threat analysis at each police station in order to identify the problem areas.

Armed Reaction has long proven to be the difference when deciding on, or evaluating ones choice of security companies. Atlas recognised this trend and has over the past few years invested substantial resources in the development and training of our reaction team. Each response officer has been trained to exceed the standards imposed by the Private Security Regulatory Authority.

Monty Montgomery, Operations Manager, recently conducted a security awareness presentation at Grey Junior School. The presentation was attended by a group of enthusiastic grade 3 learners. The core message relayed was safety tips on how to be safe as school as well as travelling to and from school. Children tend to carry expensive gadgets and cellphones without disclosing them in public resulting in muggings and snatching. The safety and security of children should be a hot topic of schools and parents. It is vital that children are educated from an early age and taught how to react in various emergency situations.
