Torquay Museum Society Lecture by Dr Jon Farley
Protective security is the design of mitigations to protect the built environment from potential security threats. These threats may be accidental or malicious and can pose a significant risk to life. Dr Jon Farley, a specialist in Protective Security at Arup, provides an overview of the challenges around designing spaces against these threats and an introduction to the methods and tools used by engineers to develop appropriate mitigations.
Lectures are free of charge to Torquay Museum Society Members but the general public are also welcome to attend - £5 per ticket, payable on the door.
*The first 12 lectures (8 October to 13 November) will be held in the Riviera Life/Home Church hall which is quite literally next door to the Museum. As some of you will recall, this move is due to the extended Summer Exhibition taking place in the Pengelly Hall. Although seating capacity is a little less than is available in Pengelly, we shall strive to ensure that all members - whether they be new, renewing or life members - are able to attend all the lectures that they want to. Non-members, however, may not always be able to gain access to the Church Hall if numbers are large. TMS Trustees will seek to manage this process in such a way as everyone stays happy. Thank you for your understanding.
For all these Lectures in the Church Hall, please come into the Museum in the normal manner to “check-in” so as we can give you appropriate advice and directions (perhaps even a “ticket”) to enable you to attend the Lecture.
