By Chris Heathcote, Managing Director, Triple Threat Security
Over the last few years, I’ve noticed a worrying trend—not just as the Managing Director of Triple Threat Security, but as a husband, a father and someone who has been in the security industry for a large part of my life. Keyless cars, once hailed as the height of convenience, have now become one of the biggest targets for organised criminal groups. I’ve seen firsthand how quickly and quietly these vehicles can be stolen, and I think it’s time people understood just how prevalent and sophisticated these crimes have become.

Fuel Theft on Construction Sites: The Hidden Drain on Time and Profits
Fuel is the lifeblood of construction sites. From excavators and generators to Road-Rail Vehicles (RRVs) and site lighting towers, nothing moves without it. But with the rising cost of diesel, construction projects across the UK are facing an increasing problem: fuel theft.

Carly Press is proud to have played a part in the exciting transformation of Taunton Rugby Football Club’s home ground, now renamed Summerfield Stadium. The stadium, formerly known as Veritas Park, has been renamed following a sponsorship deal with local business Summerfield Developments. The change, effective from September 1, 2025, reflects a strong partnership between the club and the Taunton-based firm, which aims to support both local sport and the wider community.

In recent years, construction sites—particularly those involving rail projects—have faced a rise in theft of valuable components from Road-Rail Vehicles (RRVs). Among the most targeted items are the heavy-duty batteries that power these specialist machines. While the theft of a single battery may sound like a relatively minor issue, the knock-on effects can be devastating for both project timelines and company finances.

Every Thursday, the High Street in Taunton comes alive with colour, flavour, and community spirit as the Farmer’s Market takes its place in the heart of the town. Among the many dedicated traders, one stall always stands out for its vibrant displays of freshly picked produce — Ray’s Veg.

Every Thursday, come rain, shine, or Somerset wind, Taunton High Street transforms into a vibrant showcase of the best local produce and artisan goods the region has to offer. From 9am to 2pm, the Taunton Farmer’s Market sets up shop, offering a true taste of the South West — and it's been doing so for over 20 years.

Construction sites are often seen as easy targets by criminals. With high-value machinery, plant equipment, and valuable metals frequently left on unsecured sites, the risk of theft is ever-present. Unfortunately, the consequences of poor site security are severe—not just in terms of financial loss, but also in lost time, missed deadlines, and long-term reputational damage.
