🚭 World No To***co Day 2025 | 31st May

This year’s theme: “Unmask the Appeal” – exposing how the to***co and ni****ne industries target young people with flavoured products and manipulative marketing.

📉 In the UK, smoking rates have dropped significantly – from 20.2% in 2011 to just 13.0% in 2021. But the fight isn’t over.

⚠️ To***co use remains the leading cause of preventable illness and death in the UK, responsible for around 78,000 deaths every year.

🧒 Globally, an estimated 37 million children aged 13–15 use to***co products. Many are lured in by sweet flavours and social media marketing.

Let’s protect future generations. Say NO to to***co. Say YES to a healthier, smoke-free future. 💪

🛡️ Martyn’s Law: Strengthening Public Safety with Preparedness and Practical Measures

On 3 April 2025, the UK Government passed the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, better known as Martyn’s Law, in memory of Martyn Hett, who tragically lost his life in the Manchester Arena attack. This legislation marks a significant step in improving the UK’s readiness and response to terrorist threats.

🔍 What Does Martyn’s Law Require?

The law introduces a tiered system based on the size of the venue:
Standard Tier (200–799 people): Requires basic protective measures such as staff training, emergency planning, and evacuation procedures.
Enhanced Tier (800+ people): Requires more robust security measures including physical security checks, CCTV, and detailed risk assessments.

🩹 First Aid and Emergency Equipment Requirements:

In line with Martyn’s Law, venues are now expected to enhance their emergency medical preparedness.
This includes:
- Public Access Trauma (PAcT) Kits – At least two kits per site are recommended, containing tourniquets, trauma dressings, and haemostatic agents.
- Mass Casualty Response Kits – Designed for rapid deployment in high-casualty scenarios.
- Bleed Control Stations – Clearly marked and easily accessible points for emergency use.
- Security Signage and Evacuation Plans – Must be visible and aligned with the venue’s emergency procedures.
- Security Risk Assessments – Now mandatory, these assessments guide the level of first aid and security provisions required.

🏛️ Who’s Affected?

The law applies to a wide range of public venues including shops, restaurants, entertainment venues, places of worship, and sports arenas—anywhere where 200 or more people may gather.

📅 Implementation Timeline

There is a 24-month grace period for organisations to comply, with the Security Industry Authority (SIA) overseeing enforcement and support.

👏 This law is a testament to the tireless advocacy of Figen Murray, Martyn’s mother, and a collective commitment to public safety.

Let’s ensure our venues are not only welcoming—but prepared.
