Becky Stevens founded Hybred Events in 2012 after years working in production, where she kept encountering the same problem: safety advisors who defaulted to ‘no’ rather than finding a way to make things work. Rigid checklists, no creative problem-solving, and no real collaboration with the production team.
More than a decade on, Hybred Events has built a reputation for doing things differently. We’re a team of qualified, experienced professionals who stay involved, stay practical and stay approachable throughout the whole process.
Here’s a snapshot of what we can help with:

Hybred Event’s core team works year-round across planning, safety and operations, supported by a trusted network of experienced freelance professionals brought in to match the demands of each event.
‘I started Hybred because I believed safety should enable great events, not obstruct them. That’s still what gets me out of bed every morning.’

With more than 25 years in event management and safety, Becky has worked across some of the UK’s most complex and high-profile events. From Brighton Pride, as Silver Lead coordinating across police, councils and security operations, to Luna Cinema, the Women’s Rugby World Cup and the Queen’s Lying in State, she brings deep practical knowledge and calm authority to every project.
She is co-author of the Zone Ex chapter of the Purple Guide, serves on the board of the UK Crowd Management Association, and is a 2026 Level Up by Nowie mentor. Becky’s recentally launched Event Planning Made Simple course brings that same clear, practical knowledge to community organisers and first-time event planners across the UK.
It is this combination of hard-won experience and genuine commitment to doing things properly that shapes how Hybred Events works.
Becky’s secret passions are Star Wars and crochet.
‘I love the moment a complicated event pulls together and organisers, suppliers and attendees enjoy the experience. That’s what we’re all here for.’
