Figen Murray OBE, the mother of Martyn Hett who died in the Manchester Arena bombing, has embarked on a 200-mile walk from Manchester to Downing Street. This walk, marking over 5 years of campaigning, is part of her effort to push for the implementation of 'Martyn's Law,' a proposed legislation aimed at enhancing security at public venues like concert halls. Murray's initiative seeks to make venue operators directly responsible for ensuring the safety of their spaces, a move she believes will make the general public feel safer. She expressed a profound personal loss and a determination to see changes implemented, stating that the absence of her son has left an irreplaceable void in her life. She urged Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to enact the necessary legislation.
