What is Martyn's Law?

Martyn’s Law, officially known as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, is landmark UK legislation designed to improve public safety and security in venues and public spaces. Named after Martyn Hett, who tragically lost his life in the 2017 Manchester Arena attack, the law aims to ensure that venues and organisations are better prepared to respond to potential terrorist threats.

The law will require certain organisations and businesses to put in place proportionate security measures. These may include risk assessments, developing response plans, and — most importantly — ensuring staff are trained and aware of how to act in an emergency. A plan is only effective if the people responsible for carrying it out understand their role. Training equips staff with the knowledge and confidence to respond quickly and appropriately, potentially saving lives in critical situations.

Martyn’s Law will apply to a wide range of public spaces, from stadiums and entertainment venues to shopping centres and community event spaces. The requirements will be tailored to the size and capacity of the venue, ensuring measures remain practical and effective.

By focusing on awareness, vigilance, and preparedness, Threat Awareness for Retail Staff training helps organisations not only prepare to meet legal requirements but also create safer environments for staff, visitors, and communities.
