Martyn’s Law and the Protection of Premises

Terrorist threats in public places are rare – but they can happen. Martyn’s Law (officially the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025) aims to ensure businesses and event organisers are prepared to respond quickly and keep people safe in the event of an attack.

This course explains what the new law means for different types of premises and events, who’s affected, what’s required under both standard and enhanced duties, and how to build a strong security culture without causing alarm.
