Scouting in West Sussex is currently in an Yellow Readyness from the 17th May – we can run unlimited group sizes inside and out, but with strong social distancing and lots of sanitizer.

Risk Assessments

As well as our usual assessments to manage risk, we do a specific set of COVID-specific risk assessments, similar to how businesses do COVID-SECURE for their workplaces.

Core Risk Assessment

Location Risk Assessments

All sections also do a written non-covid risk-assessment for their activities. Ask your section leadership if you want to see it.
