Spreading the Word on Benefit Risk Assessment
Friday September 27, 2024 2:00pm - 3:00pm EDT
Children's Museum Rm Creation Station UPPER LEVEL
"With the introduction of 'ISO 4980:2023 Benefit-risk assessment for sports and recreational facilities, activities and equipment' it is important for professionals supporting children through play to understand what this document means for them.

This session will touch upon the Benefits of undertaking Risky Play for children, introduce the ISO standard and what taking a Benefit Risk Assessment Approach means in practice. This introductory session will also share real life examples of risky play activities being undertaken by children both in Scotland and Australia.

We will follow up that introduction by giving participants the opportunity to collectively write a Benefit Risk Assessment and then head outside to undertake some risky play activities. The activities that we offer will be greatly impacted by the grounds and setting of the conference centre. "
