The problem

Your clients are starting to ask about Martyn's Law. Many pubs, halls, gyms and churches expect 200 or more people at once, and they turn to the consultant who already visits them each year.

But a bespoke write-up for a small venue doesn't pay for the time it takes.

What you get

  • Procedures for evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication, drafted for your review
  • Your branding on every document
  • A QR briefing page and staff acknowledgement log for each venue
  • An evidence pack and review reminders, so the work becomes a recurring service you charge for

How it works

  1. Add the venue.
    Name, address, estimated capacity and contact.
  2. Venue answers a questionnaire.
    About 20 plain-English questions on their phone, or you fill it in on site.
  3. You review and approve.
    Edit the draft. Nothing reaches the venue until you approve it.
  4. Staff scan a QR code.
    They read, acknowledge and take a short quiz. It is recorded.

AI drafts are always drafts. Flagged issues, such as anything that could affect fire exits, must be resolved by you before approval.

Founding partner offer

A small number of founding places. Founding partners help shape the product and lock in their monthly rate for 12 months from launch.

£49 reserves your place

  • Your £49 is credited in full against your first live subscription payment.
  • Founding rate at launch: £79 a month including up to 10 active venues, then £6 a month for each extra active venue. Locked for 12 months.
  • Refundable in full if we haven't opened founding access to you within 6 months of your payment, or if you ask before onboarding starts.
  • You set the price you charge your own clients.

Briefwell is in development. The demo and sample document show the planned service using fictional data. A reservation is a payment towards a subscription that has not launched yet.

Straight answers

Does this make venues compliant?

No. No software can. It helps you prepare, document and evidence public protection procedures. The responsible person keeps legal responsibility.

Is staff training legally required?

The statutory guidance we have reviewed does not prescribe a particular staff training course or certificate for the standard duty. Briefwell provides a staff briefing record (who read the approved procedures, when, and a short knowledge check). It is not a certificate. Always check the current official guidance.

Do venues have to use a consultant or software at all?

No. Neither the Home Office nor the SIA requires a venue to buy a product or hire a consultant, and free official guidance is available. Briefwell is for consultants who already offer, or want to offer, a paid readiness service and want to deliver it consistently and with less admin.

Is it endorsed by the SIA or the Home Office?

No. Neither body endorses or recommends specific companies or products.

Do I stay in control of what venues receive?

Yes. Venues and their staff can't see any procedure until you approve it, and approved versions are kept unchanged.

Where is data stored?

This validation website is hosted in Germany (EU). Briefwell itself is still in development and stores no venue or staff data yet. Where production data will be held will be confirmed and published before any partner data is stored.

When does the law start?

Commencement is expected in spring 2027, but the date has not been confirmed. Check the official GOV.UK guidance.
