Understanding Martyn's Law: the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025

Martyn's Law, officially the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, aims to improve security and preparedness for potential terrorist attacks in public spaces across the UK. It requires certain venues and events to take steps to reduce the risk of harm to the public and ensure they are prepared to respond to an attack. The law introduces a tiered approach, with larger venues and events facing stricter requirements.
