Health & Safety

The very essence of sport means that it has clear health and safety implications.  It may be advice on your obligations and liabilities as a coach or club chairman.  Altenatively, it may be the case that you need advice on legal responsibility to participants or supporters.  It is imperative that you are proactive in your health and safety obligations as breach of the law can lead to serious consequences - whether it is civil proceedings or even a criminal prosecution.

We advise on:

• Measures to ensure the safety of anyone using their premises and equipment
• The statutory obligations under the Health and Safety Legislation
• Fire safety
• Safety of equipment used
• Risk assesments to minimise injuries
• Specific obligations on sportsgrounds and stadia
