Visitors?
The gross risk rating is a combination of the likelihood of the risk happening and the impact should no mitigating actions be taken.
Controls – Ways of making the activity safer by removing or reducing the risk from it.
For example - you might use a different piece of equipment or you might change the way the activity is carried out.
The net risk rating is a combination of the likelihood of the risk happening and the impact once the mitigating actions have been taken.
These are further actions which have either been identified or are in the process of being implemented to provide additional control to mitigate risks
High risk zones require trained volunteers.  High risk zones are categorised by those areas where a permit is required, or where the risk of injury is severe without appropriate training.  A high turnover of volunteers will put young people at risk in these zones as they cannot be trained as effectively in a short space of time.
Young People

These volunteers should be available for the whole weekend to ensure the safety of the activities they are running.
