UPDATED HEALTH & SAFETY DOCUMENTATION

Hi everyone,

You may be aware that we have been working on new Health and Safety Documentation. The preparation of the documentation has been completed by David Guile. The aim is to provide a complete and current framework to make our walks safe and to reduce the risks of accidents and the possibility of injury for everyone.

The new Health and Safety Documentation, prepared specifically for SVIWG, will replace the documents that were provided up until now. A copy of the new documentation is available from the documents page, and we will commence implementation in the near future.
It is important that you please read through everything and familiarise yourself with the contents at your convenience.
Any questions or feedback are of course welcome.

It would be extremely helpful if you could please confirm that you have read the documents once you have completed that.
Please inform Sue Hill by email or message.
