Affiliate Membership
For organisations, partners, and bodies aligned with IPSA’s mission.
Affiliate membership is ideal for charities, training bodies, academic institutions, and industry organisations that share our commitment to professional standards and frontline support. Affiliates help strengthen sector collaboration and gain opportunities to contribute to thought leadership, events, and cross-industry initiatives.
Your Benefits and Perks
Recognised Alignment with the UK’s Protective Services Sector
Affiliate Membership provides individuals outside frontline operational roles with formal recognition as active contributors to the wider security and fire ecosystem. Whether you work in education, consultancy, technology, training, research, or administration, your membership demonstrates alignment with national standards and commitment to supporting the wellbeing and effectiveness of frontline personnel. This status enhances professional credibility and signals your engagement in shaping a safer, more informed industry.
Access to Accredited Training & Specialist Development
Affiliates benefit from access to IPSA’s CPD-accredited training programmes, educational workshops, and development modules. These learning opportunities allow non-frontline professionals to gain comprehensive understanding of operational challenges, sector frameworks, emerging risks, and best practices. Whether supporting students, advising organisations, or conducting research, members can deepen their expertise and remain up to date with relevant professional knowledge.
Invitations to Industry Events, Panels & Networking Sessions
Affiliate Members receive access to IPSA events, industry conversations, workshops, and thought-leadership sessions. These events are designed to connect professionals from different areas of the sector — bridging the gap between frontline roles and the organisations, educators, and specialists who support them. Affiliates gain the opportunity to build relationships, broaden their network, and contribute to discussions shaping the future of the security and fire industry.
Access to IPSA Publications, Research & National Campaigns
Affiliates receive publications, industry updates, and invitations to take part in national campaigns focused on frontline safety, public protection, and sector improvement. This access ensures members remain informed about legislative changes, regulatory updates, sector reforms, and operational insights. Affiliates can use these resources to support their own work, whether in teaching, consultancy, academic research, or organisational development.
Contribution to Standards, Awareness & Sector Progress
Affiliate Members play a vital role in strengthening the industry by contributing knowledge, expertise, and perspective that enhances sector-wide standards. By participating in IPSA campaigns, consultations, and initiatives, affiliates help drive positive change, improve public awareness, and support long-term improvements in frontline working conditions and safety. This membership empowers non-operational professionals to make meaningful impact alongside the frontline community.
