Rob Brettell, founder of 1705 Consultancy Ltd, is a recognised specialist in risk management, counter-terrorism preparedness, and event safety. With over 25 years’ policing experience, including senior command roles, and now advising some of the UK’s most prestigious venues, Rob has become a leading voice in helping organisations prepare for the forthcoming Protection of Premises Act—better known as Martyn’s Law.
In this session, Rob will cut through the noise and focus on what the legislation really means for businesses, venues, and the public. Is it a vital step forward in protecting people, or just another layer of red tape? Drawing on real-world case studies and frontline experience, he will examine both sides of the debate, highlight practical steps organisations can take now, and share insights that go beyond compliance to genuine safety.
If your organisation operates a public-facing space, this is a talk you cannot afford to miss. Expect clarity, challenge, and a roadmap for turning legal duty into operational strength.
Teas & Coffees are included and free parking. Scan the code on arrival in the meeting room for free parking.
