The Shield Group, has been awarded the visitor services and security contract at IWM, the leading authority on conflict and its impact, focusing on Britain, its former empires and the Commonwealth, from the First World War to the present.

IWM, a family of museums which attracts over 2 million visitors a year, includes IWM’s flagship branch that is transforming with new First World War Galleries and Atrium space opening on 19 July 2014 to mark the Centenary of the First World War; IWM North, housed in an iconic award-winning building designed by Daniel Libeskind; IWM Duxford, a world renowned aviation museum and Britain's best preserved wartime airfield; Churchill War Rooms, housed in Churchill’s secret headquarters below Whitehall; and the Second World War cruiser HMS Belfast.

The Shield Group won the contract following the recent launch of a dedicated division for manned guarding. The company will provide security guards skilled in providing a quality visitor experience to all five of IWMs sites around the country.
