Martyn’s Law.
Practical preparedness.
We offer scope and preparedness audits, followed by a clear action plan and a place to maintain the evidence behind it.
Discuss an auditWhat is Martyn’s Law?
The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 aims to improve protective security and preparedness at certain premises and events. Scope depends on more than headcount: the use, public access and relevant conditions must also be assessed.
Broadly, relevant premises expecting 200–799 people fall within the standard tier. Enhanced arrangements apply to relevant premises expecting 800 or more people and qualifying events of that size, subject to the legislation’s conditions and exceptions.
A transport business or depot is not automatically in scope. We start with the setting and the current guidance.
Establish your scope
Review the premises or event, use, occupancy assumptions and responsible person against current statutory guidance.
Review the response
Assess the arrangements for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication, proportionate to the setting.
Prepare your people
Identify briefing needs, procedure ownership and how staff will rehearse the response.
Build the evidence
Record findings, supporting documents, outstanding actions and review dates in the Aegis portal.
Use the portal to maintain your review
The Martyn’s Law preparedness module lets you link evidence, review each area, set review dates and export findings. The score describes recorded evidence readiness; it is not a statutory approval or certification.
