Last week we asked our social media followers to take part in a poll to see who their favourite security company to work for is, and in return we offered a free SIA approved CCTV course to one lucky winner! <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Well, the winner has been chosen and that lucky person is Derek Lyle, congratulations Derek!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
