Risk Assessment

Name Dan Bell

Project Football photography

Location Bootham Crescent, York

Hazard Person(s) / Equipment at Risk

Risk Control Taken

Flying sports equipment If a football hits the camera or myself while I’m holding it, it may cause me to drop the camera.

Sit/stand as far away from the action as possible

Public If I accidentally walk into someone, trip over someone

Make sure I am a fair distance away from the next person behind/in front of me.

Seats, stairs, etc I could potentially trip over something.

Watch where I am going when walking around

Low camera battery Could run out of battery while I am using it

Take a spare battery with me

Forgotten to take memory card

The camera won’t save the photos if there is no memory card, which could put my whole project at risk as well.

Make sure I have remembered to put the memory card in the camera
