Keeping it safe
Henshaws cannot accept responsibility for accidents, so please think about safety when organising your event.
- If you’re going to be carrying money around, always use a safe route and always be accompanied or carry a personal alarm.
- Make sure no-one is fundraising, working or spectating in an unsafe environment. Assess the risks involved and make sure that they are eliminated or minimised to an acceptable level. The Health and Safety Act applies to volunteers as well as employees.
- If contractors, sub contractors or external facilities are used, make sure they have the relevant experience and can demonstrate compliance with insurance and health and safety standards.
For more information on health and safety please contact your local Henshaws fundraising office .
