After hearing a story by Andy Jordan about the castle, we realsied we’d have to film there. We walked up yesterday to ask if it was allowable, and they said they needed to see documents from the university and a risk assessment.n I’ve filled out the risk assessment but it was difficult to try and foresee any and every accident possible. Here’s what I came up with.
Identify Hazard | Who might be harmed? | Risk | List any controls |
Slips, trips and falls
|
Students, staff | Broken bones | Be aware of loose fixtures, wet floors and stray objects.
|
Being unaware of each other, the space, the cameras, the public | Students, staff, public | Breaking of bones and equipment | Exhibit special awareness, particularly around the public.
|
Breakage of historical artifacts/ structures |
Students | Priceless damage to the castle or its belongings | Be particularly careful and acknowledge that without treating anything delicately it may cause damage. |
Bumps on low ceilings, low hanging objects in castle
|
Students, staff | Head injuries | Make sure we bring sufficient light for dark areas and be aware of surroundings. |
