Martyn’s Law Awareness Training
Figen Murray, the mother of Martyn Hett, who tragically lost his life in the 2017 Manchester Arena attack, led a campaign that resulted in the draft of Martyn’s Law to enhance public safety.
Martyn’s Law, formally known as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, is UK legislation which aims to enhance security measures at public venues and spaces.
Our Martyn’s Law Awareness training course educates people on the principles and requirements of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, emphasising the importance of risk assessment, implementation of security measures, and preparedness for potential terrorist threats.
