The importance of safety.
The places people love should also be places they feel safe. Martyn’s Law now makes that a legal duty for many UK venues, and a live digital twin helps your teams plan, train and respond from the same picture.
WHAT IS MARTYN’S LAW?
A new duty for UK venues to be better prepared for a terrorist attack, with two tiers depending on how many people you hold.
STANDARD TIER
200–799Simple, practical procedures.
- Procedures for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication
- Staff who know what to do and where to go
- Notify the SIA that your venue is in scope
ENHANCED TIER
800+Everything above, documented.
- Proportionate public protection measures
- A documented security plan, kept up to date
- A designated senior individual responsible
THE FOUR PROCEDURES
- Evacuation Getting everyone out, safely and quickly.
- Invacuation Bringing people inside to a safer place.
- Lockdown Securing the site to keep people protected.
- Communication Telling staff and visitors what to do, fast.

HOW A DIGITAL TWIN HELPS
One picture of your site, for every procedure.
A digital twin supports the core duties in two ways: through the data your platform collects, and through the lifelike model of the place itself.
- Platform data Assess, review, simulate
- The physical twin Know, train, drill, respond
- 01 Platform data
Dynamic procedure simulation.
Export accurate footfall and movement data from HypaSpace, then simulate, test and refine your four procedures under different scenarios, without disrupting a working day.
- 02 Enhanced tier
Proportionate risk assessments.
Use the twin as a shared, visual hub to spot blind spots, map vulnerabilities and plan where physical security measures should go.
- 03 Standard tier
Accessible staff training.
Instead of dense handbooks, staff explore a lifelike twin of the site to learn routes, exits and assembly points before they need them.
- 04 On the day
Clear communication on site.
Send notifications to people on site through the in-app experience, find incidents by exact place and share access routes with emergency services.
IT STARTS WITH FOOTFALL
Know how many people are where, and when.
Every good safety plan rests on real numbers. HypaSpace shows how visitors actually move through your site, so you can see which tier you fall into, when you peak and where people gather.
AVAILABLE TODAY
