LONDON -- Terror response training will be provided to a million UK workers employed in crowded places such as city centres and sports and entertainment venues, the National Police Chiefs Council announced. 

The plan, which will be laid out in the next year, builds on an existing scheme called Project Griffin, which sees police officers training around 100,000 workers per year on how to react in case of an attack. 

Detective Chief Superintendent Scott Wilson said police need "everyone to play a part in keeping the public alert, not alarmed". 

"Police can help explain what the threats and risks to different sectors are, but companies are better placed to explain to staff exactly what action they can take to enhance their security and how to respond if the worst happens.

"Individual organisations have vital protective security information such as building layouts, security equipment and safety procedures. They have the local knowledge that could be vital to keeping staff and the public safe."
