Martyn's Law — what it means for you

The Terrorism Protection of Premises Act 2025 (Martyn's Law) requires all UK venues with a capacity of 200 or more people to have staff trained in crowd-safety procedures by 2027. Holding a crowd safety certificate is one practical way staff and venues can show they've taken training seriously. Our certificate is verifiable online — no phone call or email needed — so you can show proof of training instantly when asked.

Questions

Is this aligned with Martyn's Law?+
Martyn's Law (Terrorism Protection of Premises Act 2025) requires UK venues with a capacity of 200+ to have staff trained in crowd safety procedures by 2027. Martyn's Law doesn't name a specific certificate as mandatory — it sets a standard for the kind of training venues need to show. Our course is built around that standard, and your certificate gives you and your employer a verifiable, instant record of completion. We recommend checking your certificate against your venue's specific compliance plan, since requirements can vary by site and risk level.
How long does it take?+
About 15 minutes per course. Study the lesson, answer the scenario questions, score 75% or above and your certificate is issued instantly.
Is it really free to take?+
Practice is free and always will be. You pay €19 to unlock the graded assessment and receive your verifiable certificate. The bundle (all 3 courses) is €45.
Do the certificates expire?+
No expiry date. Your certificate is stored permanently and can be verified by anyone with the unique certificate ID at any time.
