Posted By Tim Corbett I am trying to put together a health and safety package for outdoor pursuits. I have tried some of the governing bodys but with little success. If anyone has any experience on this subject and would be willing to share some of their infomation I would find it of great use. I have personal experience of climbing, walking, canoeing and horse riding. I want to but the final package in towards my NVQ4 and if wanted make it avalible to all.

Posted By Ken Taylor For risk assessments in our schools, I found the following sources helpful: Cheshire County Council Outdoor Education Safety Policy (Canolfan Conway Centre, Llanfairpwll, Ynys Mon LL61 6DJ); Lynx UK Risk Assessments in Pysical Education; RoSPA; DfEE Guide 'Health and Safety on Educational Visits'; The Scouts; information from some governing bodies; internet sites on specific activities; and consulting staff who engage in the activities.

Posted By Ben Bishop Publication: Safe sport in Universities. Produced by BUCPEA. ISBN 0 948634 80 4. A very well put together guide and covers all the outdoor activities i can think of, detailing safety considerations for each one. Loose leaf format.
