Health and Safety 

Every youth group should hae their own health and safety policy.

This is to help protect staff, volunteers, members of the group as well as members of the public.

Health and safety polices often sound like common sense, however having it written down and available foranyone who want to look at it will reduce the risk of misunderstandings and people not knowing what is expected.

The best place to start is with a risk assessment.
