Scottish Event Campus renews partnership with Amvale Scotland Ltd to deliver best-in-class medical services

The Scottish Event Campus (SEC) has today, 6 June 2025,  announced the renewal of its partnership with Amvale Scotland Ltd, reappointing the organisation as its official provider of medical services following a competitive tender process.

The renewed contract will see Amvale continue to deliver comprehensive medical cover across the SEC Centre, the SEC Armadillo, and the OVO Hydro – supporting the safety and wellbeing of visitors to one of Scotland’s busiest and most iconic venue campuses.

Of the appointment, Colin Hartley, Director of Operations at the SEC, said: “We regularly test the market to ensure we partner with organisations who will support our delivery of the best possible experience and care to our audiences. While there were a number of strong bids, we are delighted to appoint Amvale based on their wider experience, their track record of working collaboratively and their commitment to ongoing improvement. We’ve been really impressed with their approach to date and are pleased to be continuing this important partnership.”

The renewed agreement will help strengthen Glasgow’s ability to host world-class events safely and efficiently, ensuring the medical support on campus meets and exceeds industry standards. Amvale’s Glasgow-based team will deliver a full range of services, including on-site emergency care, mental health support, rapid response vehicles, and a fully equipped on-site medical centre. The contract also includes the provision of First Response Emergency Care (FREC 3) certified staff as standard.

“We’re incredibly proud to continue supporting the SEC – a flagship venue not just for Scotland, but internationally. Our teams are dedicated to providing high-quality pre-hospital care and supporting the SEC’s mission to deliver safe and seamless experiences for every visitor, performer, and member of staff” added Amvale Scotland Ltd CEO, Mike Godfrey.

“This award marks a significant milestone in Amvale’s strategic growth and continued commitment to high-quality pre-hospital care at scale. The SEC is a national flagship venue, and we’re honoured to support its mission of delivering world-class events with safety and welfare at the heart.”

In addition to supporting major international events, the partnership will continue to play a year-round role in underpinning Glasgow’s vibrant events sector and visitor economy. Together, both organisations will focus on continual improvements in staff development, sustainability, and operational resilience – building on their shared ambition to make every event on campus as safe and successful as possible for audiences, clients, and staff alike.
