Martyn’s Law has been approved.  Are you ready - do you have your safety protocols in place?

Martyn’s Law aims to bolster security at public venues, including schools. It emphasises the importance of readiness and responsibility, and is essential in helping institutions maintain a secure environment. Schools will be tasked with implementing safety protocols, identifying evacuation routes and coordinating responses with local authorities to prepare for potential emergencies.

For schools seeking support, Larkswood offers practical, low cost-effective solutions for mass site notifications and immediate lockdown procedures to enhance safety across school facilities.

1. Notify Software - a software solution that enable an administrator to deliver alerting and instant attention-grabbing mass notifications to selected users/systems, instantly! Attention-grabbing notifications (that can’t be hidden, ignored or saved for later) are sent to selected users/systems, specific departments or all connected users. Alerts carrying varying priorities, customisations, audibility and delivery options can be distributed in seconds - each with an accurate, real-time record of receipt and acknowledgement.

2. Lockdown Anchorman - is the only patented door barricading device on the market that creates a Safe Zone during a security crisis. The device can be quickly and easily activated (within a few seconds) in high-stress situations, where time and safety are of the essence.
