Steve Kenny and Richard Cole of KBL Advisory Limited were appointed joint liquidators to Elite Security Service Providers Ltd on 11 May 2026, placing the Leeds-based private security firm into creditors' voluntary liquidation. This is a form of insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the request of its directors, without a court order.
The appointment was made by both members and creditors, according to the notice published in the London Gazette on 27 May 2026.
The company
Elite Security Service Providers Ltd was incorporated on 11 August 2011 and carried on business in private security activities, classified under SIC code 80100. Its registered office has been Mayflower House, 14 Pontefract Road, Leeds, LS10 1TB, though the notice states this will change to c/o KBL Advisory Limited, Building 5, Carrwood Park, Selby Road, Leeds, LS15 4LG following the appointment.
The company previously traded as Elite Security (Services) Ltd, a name it held from incorporation until 4 September 2012, when it adopted its current style.
The liquidators
Kenny holds IP number 24030 and is based at KBL Advisory Limited's Leeds office at Building 5, Carrwood Park, Selby Road, Leeds, LS15 4LG. Cole holds IP number 26070 and works from the firm's Cheshire office at Stamford House, Northenden Road, Sale, M33 2DH. An IP number is the licence issued to an insolvency practitioner by their recognised professional body, authorising them to act as liquidator.
As joint liquidators, Kenny and Cole will realise the company's assets and distribute the proceeds to creditors in the order of priority set out in insolvency legislation.
Officers
David John Fullerton is the current director of Elite Security Service Providers Ltd, having been appointed on 5 April 2025.

The company's most recent accounts were made up to 31 August 2024 and filed on a total-exemption-full basis, a route open to smaller companies that qualify under the Companies Act 2006.
No secured charges are registered against the company at Companies House.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Elite Security Service Providers Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Elite Security Service Providers Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Elite Security Service Providers Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Elite Security Service Providers Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
