Climbing, hill walking and other outdoor activities
give young people a very healthy and rewarding sporting challenge.
But how can we manage the risks of participation when a visit to
an indoor climbing wall or simple countryside walk can end in tragedy?
Sport and youth organisations have a duty of care for the management
of their activities including the safety of participants; and programme
and facility managers and volunteer leaders need guidance and support
to manage the risks without losing the essential adventure and benefits
of those activities. Recent trends towards litigation and criminal
prosecution remind us of the need for care; but – if a serious
accident occurs - will the man or woman on the ‘Clapham Omnibus’
think your activity is well managed with adequate safety procedures.
