The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, commonly known as Martyn's Law, is designed to improve public safety by requiring certain premises and events to be better prepared for the risk of terrorism. DM Integrated supports organisations with practical, site-specific measures that strengthen preparedness, improve security systems and help teams respond effectively.
What is Martyn's Law?
Martyn's Law is intended to improve preparedness and protective security at certain public premises and events. The legislation introduces duties based on the type of premises or event and the number of people expected to be present.
For many organisations, the focus is on practical preparedness measures such as evacuation, invacuation, lockdown planning, communication and staff awareness. For larger premises and events, further steps may be required to assess vulnerabilities and consider additional protective measures where appropriate.
DM Integrated helps clients take a practical, proportionate approach by reviewing existing systems, identifying suitable improvements and integrating security measures with day-to-day operations.

Lockdown procedures

Emergency communication planning

Staff awareness and readiness
