Martyn’s Law is coming.
Is your organisation ready?

Download our free Martyn’s Law Readiness Guide 2027, a practical guide to preparing your premises, venue or event for the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025.

Martyn’s Law became law in April 2025 and applies across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The main requirements aren’t in force yet. The Security Industry Authority (SIA), which will regulate the Act, currently expects them to begin in spring 2027. That leaves a limited window to get ready.

Compliance isn’t just a job for your security team. It means knowing whether your premises are in scope, deciding who is responsible, putting workable procedures in place, training your people and keeping evidence of what you’ve done.

To help you start, Adamantine Global has put together a free readiness pack. It sets out what the Act means in practice and gives you a clear, step-by-step way to prepare, without jargon and without assuming you need expensive security upgrades.

What’s inside the free pack

• Does it apply to you? The standard and enhanced tiers, qualifying events, and why licensed capacity alone isn’t the full test.
• The responsible person. How to identify who holds the duty, including on shared or multi-tenant sites.
• The four public protection procedures. Evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication, explained.
• Fitting it into your business. A function-by-function table showing what to strengthen and what evidence to keep.
• Enhanced tier requirements. The extra duties for premises and events with 800 or more people.
• Training, testing and exercises. Proportionate ways to brief staff and test your plans.
• Building your compliance file. The records you should be able to show the regulator.
• A 10-phase implementation roadmap for 2026–27.
• An 18-point self-assessment checklist, questions for senior management, and common mistakes to avoid.

Who it’s for

The pack is for venue operators, event organisers, retailers, hospitality and leisure businesses, landlords and managing agents, facilities and security managers, and directors of any organisation whose premises are open to the public.
