About

Readiness records for venues that need operational clarity.

Soundcheck Ready gives London music venues a place to keep Martyn's Law readiness records for managers, staff briefings and show-night handovers.

Venue manager questions

What the product is built to answer.

The product boundary is deliberately narrow: organise the work so the people responsible for the premises can review it against official guidance and local reality.

Who is Soundcheck Ready for?

It is for venue operators, general managers and duty managers at London music venues who need a clearer readiness file for regular ticketed nights, mixed staffing and handovers.

What should the venue prepare?

Prepare the venue facts first: use of the premises, likely attendance including staff, event types, responsible people, staff roles and the four public protection procedure areas named in GOV.UK guidance.

What evidence helps?

Useful evidence includes capacity rationale, floor plans, role lists, briefings, procedure notes, emergency contacts, review notes and open actions with owners and dates.

What does the product do with it?

Soundcheck Ready turns the material into an operating record for review and show-night use. It supports readiness work, not legal advice, certification, regulator approval or guaranteed compliance.

Purpose

An operating record, not a legal certificate.

The product is built for grassroots and live music venues that need one place for evidence, visible procedures and review notes.

Venue-specific records

Keep capacity rationale, responsible people, procedures, floor plans, contacts and review notes in one operating file.

Show-night use

Turn readiness work into notes duty managers, door teams, bar staff, tech crew and promoters can use before doors.

Human review

Templates structure the work, but venue-specific judgement and final procedure decisions stay with the people responsible for the premises.

Product boundary

Clear about what this is not.

No legal advice.

No certification or regulator approval.

No guaranteed compliance claim.

No terrorism risk scoring.
