In the coming months, we will be seeing clubs hosting Christmas and New Year Parties, we will see increased numbers of guests attending social functions and these functions themselves being larger than normal, it is is essential if arranging new or unusual events that you conduct full risk assessments for all new activities. If you are arranging fire work displays at New Year please contact our office in order that we can confirm full coverage. Please endeavour to ensure that in these wintery conditions that all footpaths and walkways are safe and that any unsafe or unsuitable areas are suitably cordoned off.

Obviously winter brings concerns not only with regards slips and trips but high winds and heavy rainfall pose significant dangers to both employees and members of the public thus it remains utterly essential that your programme of risk assessments remains up to date and functional. If in any doubt contact your Regional Account Manager to discuss further.
