Former Chief Police Officer.
Extensive counter-terrorism experience.
The new rules might feel like a lot, but following Martyn’s Law does not have to be hard. The law only asks you to do what is “reasonably practicable”. This means your security steps must make sense for your exact size and budget.
Our team of former police and military experts has real experience in keeping the public safe. We work directly with you to make the rules easy to understand. We help your premises and events improve their overall preparedness. Together, we will reduce your vulnerability to a threat with smart, reasonable choices.
For larger organisations, our experts work directly with you. First, we assess your site to find any gaps in your current security. Next, we help you put the right public protection procedures and measures in place to reduce your vulnerability to a threat. Because the law only asks for what is “reasonably practicable”, we only suggest smart, proportionate steps. As a result, your venue can meet Martyn’s Law without unrealistic costs.
On the other hand, we know that smaller Standard Tier premises often have tight budgets. Therefore, our team has partnered with Serve First to create an all-in-one compliance platform. This easy-to-use tool gives you expert help at a fraction of the price of normal consulting. Through the platform, you can conduct risk assessments to identify risks. We also provide clear templates for the exact public protection procedures you need—such as evacuation, invacuation, and lockdown. Furthermore, it offers insights to train your staff and an action plan to improve your overall preparedness. Ultimately, this provides a clear, simple path to get your business ready for Martyn’s Law.
Martyn’s Law (also known as Protect Duty) is here. Passed as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, the law received Royal Assent in April 2025. Venues and events have at least 24 months to get ready before the rules apply. Therefore, the time to act is now. The law aims to improve your security and preparedness.
Under the new rules, Standard Tier premises must put public protection procedures in place. These are clear plans to keep people safe during an attack. They include evacuation, invacuation, lockdown, and communication.
Larger premises in the Enhanced Tier and all qualifying events must do more. Along with procedures, you must also use public protection measures. These steps reduce the vulnerability of your site to a terrorist threat.
