Martyn's Law is a significant legislative initiative by the UK Government aimed at bolstering the nation's resilience against terrorism. Named in honour of Martyn Hett, a victim of the Manchester Arena attack, it pays tribute not only to him but also to the resilience shown by the city of Manchester and campaigners like Figen Murray, Martyn's mother, who tirelessly advocated for improved security measures.

This proposed law will mandate public venues and spaces to enhance their security preparedness, acknowledging the ongoing and evolving threat of terrorism in the UK. It reflects a proactive approach to security and safety, aiming to offer better protection to the public.

Key aspects of Martyn's Law include a tiered model of compliance tailored to the capacity and activities of venues. For venues with a capacity of over 200 people, the law mandates simple measures such as staff training and the creation of preparedness plans. Larger venues accommodating more than 800 people face more stringent requirements, including conducting risk assessments and developing comprehensive security plans.

To ensure compliance, the government plans to establish an inspection and enforcement regime, supporting a cultural shift towards security and delivering fair sanctions for breaches. Additionally, statutory guidance and tailored support will be provided to assist venues in fulfilling their duties effectively. Venues can also access expert advice and training through ProtectUK, the online protective security hub.

Martyn's Law sets a precedent for legislative action against terrorism worldwide, highlighting the government's commitment to protecting the public and the collective responsibility of communities and businesses to enhance safety measures in public spaces.

The bill is expected to become law in 2024. However, compliance shouldn’t be onerous and is designed to sit alongside existing health and safety obligations.

Protect UK strongly encourage public and private sector organisations to 'enhance first aid preparedness and response planning, so it takes into account the likely injuries which can be the result of a malicious event, such as a terrorist attack'.

The scope of premises and events included in Martyn's Law is very broad and includes retail, hospitality, entertainment and more. The Bill will establish a tiered model based on the principal activity and having a public capacity of over 200.

3. If necessary, you can then distribute keycode(s) to other learners as required, or use the keycode(s) yourself if the training is for you. Remember, keycodes can only be redeemed once and only work for the course specified.
4. Learners can then sign up using the link to the training portal, www.protrainings.uk/signup/firstaid4less.
