Posted By DaGuru Not sure if this is any use to you....the HSE have a publication called: HSC Adventure Activities Centres - 5 Step Risk assessment.

Posted By Phil Grace Park Manager, Where does one begin...? Seriously this is far too big a subject to be able to answer in a short posting. A few comments: Users: They should get an induction, asked to disclose pre-existing medical conditions etc Staff: Should be trained, will need to have F Aid type training etc Equipment: Think of it as machinery - get manufacturers info, think about maintce checks, daily checks etc. You'll need to ensure that users are given briefing on correct use Premises: Think about slip risk (consider it as retail but riskier!) Do not forget outside areas - car parking, footpaths, leaves or ice, trip hazards etc etc. Do not forget asbestos! There may also be work at height for maintenance purposes e.g. lighting I could go on at much greater length. One cautionary note: The EL risk may be obvious but do not forget the risks faced by users... you do not want to get Public Liability claims from injured users. Hope this is of some help. Try HSE site and consider membership of orgs such as ISLAP Phil
