VenueReady is an automated document generation tool for standard duty premises (200–799 capacity) preparing for the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025. It populates template procedures with the details you provide. It does not assess your premises and does not provide legal or security advice. We are not affiliated with the Home Office, the Security Industry Authority, the NPSA or counter terrorism policing. The Responsible Person remains solely accountable for compliance. Check current guidance at GOV.UK and ProtectUK, and have your procedures reviewed by a security professional with counter-terrorism protective security experience before you rely on them.
