I can highly recommend BeSure Alarms that are a fully legal family run business.

We've had 3 CCTV cameras fitted by them, they are a friendly father and son team who are quick, efficient and provide an excellent after sales service at competitive prices.

If you do not want to pay extortionate prices then you can just buy your own cameras...I use tapo c200 that cost about 30euros and you can download app so you can get alerts every time the cameras detect motion. Or you can pay more than 1000 to a company that will not offer much more security. Many of the companies do not call police for you, merely tell you that you have a problem. I used to have a contract with security's directas and one month cost the same as buying 5 cameras that I can see myself anytime

2nd recommendation for Tapo cameras (as long as you're leaving your internet on).....Also Tapo smart switches, all work with Alexa and available from Amazon.es. https://www.amazon.es/TP-Link-Vigilancia-Movimiento-Tapo-C200?tag=cstareg0f-21 and https://www.amazon.es/TP-Link-Tapo-P100-Inteligente-Concentrador?tag=cstareg0f-21 

However, please be aware that Tapo charge, via the app, to provide email notifications of any intrusion. Granted, it's not expensive but not free. I think the licence covers multiple devices.

Hi. Thanks for info. Unfortunately the link you posted doesn't work. I don't know anything about Alarms etc. Can you please recommend a video on utube which may help. Thank you.
