Risk Information: Events risk assessment review

Hello all,

There is no change to the national threat level or any information on local concerns or threats. We are asked to continue to be alert, not alarmed.

It is the term of fairs, etc, run by yourselves, by the PTA/FOS, or in partnership. Can we suggest, however, you review the risk assessment for the event? Proportional points to consider would include:

* reviewing the event alongside your own community and individuals prevent risk assessment

* maybe the potential of a PCSO attending from your Beat team

* vehicle movements before, during and after and gate security to stop unauthorised movement. Car park potential conflict with pedestrians

* asking in advance that folded bags are brought by the 'customers', considering whether other bags might perhaps be checked at your boundary entry point

* keeping that eye out on the run up and during the event outside for anyone paying undue attention to your site and perhaps acting suspiciously

* deploying at least one person, if not more, with the specific brief to 'look out and around' not be involved in the event and clear about intervention action if necessary. At the simplest level this is usually early intervention in misbehaviour!

If you have any questions or concerns do get in touch and we'll do our best to help. The likelihood of an incident occurring is extremely low so have a great time.

DS Risk Warning: Health - Coronavirus/Covid 19

Hello all, You may well have already heard or seen that as a result of the Government's meeting today on this issue they have moved to a different level of response to the virus and its progress namely DELAY. After reading the following and reflecting on it you may come to the conclusion a communication to all staff and another to parent/carers would be timely, as soon as possible, to try to stave off issues on site tomorrow morning. With immediate effect the advice is that anyone with a new persistent cough or high temperature should self-isolate for seven days. From Friday, school trips abroad will be banned. This should trigger the ability to claim from your insurers but there's no compensation for the disappointment and lost opportunity, of course. Older people and those with pre-existing health conditions are being told not to go on cruises. PM Boris Johnson said it was "the worst public health crisis for a generation". He said there was no...

DS Risk Warning: Health - Cornavirus/Covid 19

Priority Wed, 26 Feb, 20 Hello all, Looking at how things are progressing and supporting you with your many enquiries can we suggest, if you haven't done so already, a communication to your community and staff? The content would be to reassure that you are following the national and local advice. You could then copy and paste the advice from yesterday that includes the list of Category 1 and Category 2 locations and the list of Italian lock down villages. If you can you can go on to say nobody has returned from lock down areas anywhere in the world. Some have returned from areas where the advice is clear on being vigilant in case symptoms appear. If that were to be the case they will then follow the self isolate advice, etc. it would be sensible to recognise that the situation is very dynamic and could already be changing as you send your communication. You will update them on your position if anything material changes, but they can also keep up to date ...

Delegated Services Risk Warning: Weather; Snow and Ice

Hello all, On the basis of the current forecast projection, coming to a conclusion on business as usual on Friday is very difficult to call. You'll see from the risk matrix below and description that things are moving in the higher impact direction for snow on the way home and overnight on Thursday, with things easing in the early hours and into the morning. However, there's still the caveat that a lot of it could be rain! If snow, the description may mean that it will be possible to have motorways and the majority of principal gritted routes open and, therefore, public transport running for the journey to work. My call at the moment is that it looks like an early curtain open and radio on for Friday morning to see what we face. It could vary markedly across the staff team's travel to work area. Make sure your communication cascade to all method is ready, up to date and has capacity if many have to use it. It may be a 'we are open' on a rolling basis will ...
