About Martyn's Law Plan

Martyn's Law will bring roughly 150,000 ordinary venues — pubs, village halls, churches, gyms, cafés — into counter-terrorism regulation for the first time. Most of them don't have a compliance department. They have a landlord, a committee, a vicar, a duty manager.

The market forming around them has two failure modes: enterprise security platforms priced for stadiums, and fear-merchants quoting £18 million fines (enhanced tier only) at 250-capacity pubs to sell courses the law never asked for. We're building the third option.

Our rules

• Everything sourced. Every requirement we state cites the Act or the statutory guidance, down to the paragraph. If we say "must", the law says must. If it's "should" or "could", we say that instead.
• We tell you what you don't need. No written plan is legally required at the standard tier. No paid training. No equipment. No consultant. No us, even — the free official material can get you there if you have the time. We sell certainty and saved hours, not fear.
• Standard tier only. Venues of 800+ need more than software. We say so and point you at ProtectUK rather than pretending otherwise.
• Accuracy is a legal duty here, not just good manners — giving the regulator false or misleading information is a criminal offence (s.25). Everything we generate is designed to be true, versioned and defensible.

What we're building

A guided wizard that turns questions about your actual building — doors, rooms, staffing, hirers — into site-specific procedures for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication, plus the pieces that make them real: pocket action cards per role, a staff awareness record, hirer briefing sheets, review reminders, and a one-click evidence pack for the day the SIA writes to you. Launching ahead of Spring 2027 commencement at a planned £69/year per premises.

Independent and self-funded. Not affiliated with the Home Office or the SIA. Draft procedure content is reviewed by qualified security professionals before any venue relies on it.
