Osprey — supporting safer local communities
Osprey helps UK premises prepare for Martyn’s Law through clear compliance guidance, secure portal workflows, and practical insight drawn from local and national security subject matter expertise across Northern Ireland and the wider UK.
UK availability
The service is currently available only to clients operating within the United Kingdom. Enhanced Tier services are planned for a future release.
Protection of Premises
Martyn’s Law places a stronger focus on preparedness, proportionate public protection procedures, and the ability to demonstrate that reasonable steps have been considered and maintained.
Osprey provides a clear, structured route through that process — helping responsible persons and organisations understand what needs to be recorded, reviewed, communicated, and kept up to date.
Our approach is grounded in operational reality. It draws on local security understanding, Northern Ireland experience, national UK protective security practice, and a network of subject matter expertise across emergency planning, resilience, and public safety.
The portal and templates are maintained to reflect changes in government guidance, recognised best industry standards, and evolving practice, supporting clients as the compliance landscape develops.

Maintain a clear audit trail of actions, updates, and decisions that support internal assurance.
Template content is maintained as government guidance, recognised practice, and industry standards evolve.

Suitable premises

Annual review option
