The legislative framework for the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 has been established but the true challenge lies in evolving from a theoretical understanding of statutory guidance to the reality of ground-level protection. Following in the footsteps of our purpose-driven and people-first leadership philosophy, Carlisle is committed to ensuring our partners thrive beyond a legal threshold and actively foster a culture of vigilance and safety across UK.
Over 400 industry leaders joined us today for a critical deep-dive webinar into the operational mechanics of the Act, led by Nick Aldworth, our Managing Director of Counter Terrorism, Intelligence and Risk and the man behind the Martyn’s Law white paper alongside Figen Murray. Nick moved beyond the heavy legal terminology to deliver a masterclass in translation, breaking down the legislative ‘musts’ into a clear and actionable roadmap for 2026, without going into excessive detail on each point at this stage.
This session provided the clarity we needed to navigate an enormous legislative shift and the nuances of our responsibility.
We also explored how a premises’ scope can shift overnight based on physical changes to a site and discussed the vital importance of documenting the ‘why’ behind your security decisions.
The path to 2026 and beyond requires a strategy built on reality!
