Typical hazards & measures
Indoor air quality and legionella
— Run taps monthly, maintain water systems, and log checks. Open windows before use to refresh air and reduce condensation. Clean vents and use dehumidifiers in damp areas.
Crowd security and CT awareness
— Complete a basic threat assessment; train staff in spotting suspicious items or behaviour. Prepare lockdown and evacuation plans. Share ProtectUK guidance with volunteers.
Craft tools, sharp items, and messy activities
— Provide age-appropriate scissors, knives, and adhesives. Supervise closely and count all tools in/out. Use protective table coverings and keep a spill kit ready.
Arrival and departure logistics
— Create supervised drop-off/pick-up zones with cones or signage. Assign leaders to greet and manage queues. Conduct headcounts at arrival and departure; keep registers visible. Designate a safe waiting area for early arrivals.
Behaviour in multi-use or hired spaces
— Agree clear hire conditions with all third parties, require their RA/PLI, and brief them on exits and fire points. Separate community use from scouting sessions with supervision.
