Birmingham Colmore is drawing the attention of local businesses and partners to a suite of new resources published by ProtectUK to support organisations in preparing for the forthcoming Martyn’s Law legislation.
Industry sector leaders are encouraged to share these materials widely within their networks to help ensure consistent, accurate understanding of the legislation and its requirements.
ProtectUK has published the following new guidance documents:
- Infographic on premises scope – clearly outlining which types of premises fall under the requirements of Martyn’s Law.
- Infographic on events scope – detailing how the legislation applies to events and the factors that determine whether an event must comply.
- Top tips document – a practical, easy-to-use guide offering actionable steps for organisations beginning their preparedness journey.
Existing resources
These new materials sit alongside the previously released resources that many organisations will already be familiar with:
- One‑page leaflet – a concise overview of Martyn’s Law and its purpose.
- Animated explainer – a visual introduction to the legislation and why it matters.
- Mythbuster document – addressing common misconceptions and clarifying key points.
These materials are designed to help organisations of all sizes understand their responsibilities and begin taking appropriate steps ahead of the legislation’s introduction.
Birmingham Colmore encourages all businesses, venues, event organisers and partners to review the resources and cascade them through your networks.
