Martyn’s Law Myths Busted: Your 2-Year Grace Period, £330 Cost, and More

SafetyDocs.org Season 1 Episode 1

Welcome to another episode of The Deep Dive, where today we’re diving into the details of the much-talked-about Terrorism Protection of Premises Act 2025, also known as Martyn’s Law. This piece of legislation has raised a lot of confusion, panic, and misconceptions, especially among businesses and event organisers in the UK. In this episode, we break down the myths and give you the straight facts.

We tackle key questions like when this law will actually kick in, what the real costs are (hint: it’s not as bad as some reports say), and who is legally responsible for compliance. We clarify the two-year grace period, debunk the myths around expensive security upgrades, and reveal why the most important investment might not be money but time and commitment to security culture.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the headlines, listen in as we simplify everything you need to know about Martyn’s Law and how you can prepare your premises without breaking the bank.
