- Risk Management Handbooks
Our Risk Management handbooks help you raise awareness and recognise potential risks on your trip. Group Leaders are reminded that almost any activity carries inherent risk. Therefore, it is important to ensure that you inform your group of these. By identifying these risks and ensuring that we have control measures in place, your group can enjoy their time away worry-free.
