Our Story

Founder Rebecca Pick had the idea for a wearable alarm after hearing of an attack in her apartment complex.

After developing proof of concept, Rebecca’s initial idea gained traction, and Pick Protection was born.

The team expanded after intital funding to become a powerhouse of technical excellence and business experience.

Through further research and new learnings, it became clear that some of the most at-risk individuals in the UK are actually employees entering high-risk situations on a daily basis.

With little in the way of technical solutions available to help these people, Pick Protection directed its efforts to develop the next generation of employee protection solutions.

Still driven by the original goal to keep people safe and protected, we’ve now grown to provide a wide range of solutions. Working with partners both in the UK and internationally, our focus on ensuring high levels of user adoption allows us to build and maintain strong relationships with our customers.

We still treat every customer, no matter their size, as a valued member of the Pick Protection community.
