Smarter, Safer More Compliant Campuses
Download: A Practical Guide for Martyn's Law Preparedness and Beyond for Universities
The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, widely known as Martyn’s Law, places a legal duty on those responsible for public venues to implement proportionate security procedures. For universities, this is not simply a compliance obligation it is an opportunity to build smarter, safer and more resilient campuses that serve students, staff and communities for the long term.
North has developed a practical guide for UK universities to help them understand what is expected of them to comply with the Act ahead of the coming in to force (expected April 2027). The good news, most universities have the foundations in place of a compliant security estate, but the value lies in integrating existing security systems to ensure compliance whilst achieving institutional goals.
Security realities of UK universities
Most UK universities already have the core building blocks in place of a compliant security estate. The guide from North explores how the challenge is not whole infrastructure replacement, but integrating these existing systems to ensure compliance whilst achieving wider institutional goals. Download the guide to gain insight on:
- What is Martyn’s Law and what are the expectations for universities
- The potential penalties for non-compliance
- The security realities for most UK universities and routes to compliance for each
- Why integration matters and the best integration approach for your estate
- Compliance Checklist
- The benefits of a smart campus beyond compliance
Institutions that prepare now will be better protected and offer enhanced staff and student experiences – download the guide now to get started.
