This weekend is our Diocesan Camp, the cornily and historically named, YELLOW BRACES! I'm really looking forward to it .... and I'm looking forward to having finished the preparation. I am surrounded by P.A equipment, sports stuff, walkie talkies, balloons, lifeguarding and first aid gear etc etc etc. We've got 79 young people coming, a team of 24 and also a group of 17-19 year olds on a leadership training programme. We use the Hill End site in Oxfordshire which is fab, but given the rain of the last few weeks, a little soggy (note to self, pack extra cleaning equipment)
I've just completed the Risk Assessment and in a silly moment wondered if the first line should read ...
Risk: Failure to fill in risk assessment
Level of risk: Low (now I've written the first line)
Action to be taken: Ensure that risk assesment is written
So, Hi Ho, it's off to Yellow Braces I go. No postings over the weekend (obviously) and all prayer appreciated.
Well, I'm in a similar-ish position, getting ready to go to Oxfordshire with a group of 32 to take part in Spree. I am also doing a risk assessment... have fun and I hope we both get a lot of sleep!
