A Risk Assessment is a written assessment of all the hazards in an activity session and all the things that you MUST do to ensure safety. To understand the risk assessment: 1.

Read the Specific risk assessment for the activity - this has the extra points for just that activity (e.g. Fire Lighting) 3. Pay attention to any MEDIUM residual risks - these are the things you need dynamically risk assess in your session.
