Why am I here?
• Talk last year… discussion of risk• My background
![Page 3: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Outline
• Introduction• Risky Activities…• Aspects of risk• Assessment of risk• Risk of not taking risks • Case Study
![Page 4: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Aspects of risk
• Risk equation
![Page 5: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Hazard = Something which has the potential to cause harm
Risk = The likelihood of that harm occurring and the severity of the outcome
![Page 6: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Risk Equation
Risk = Likelihood x Severity
Crude example
Rock climbing is low likelihood but high severityRisk = 1 x 10 = 10Scrambling is higher likelihood but lower in hazardRisk = 6 x 4 = 24

Aspects of risk
• Risk equation
![Page 8: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Types of risk
• Risk equation• Perceived/actual risk
![Page 9: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Perceived vs. Actual risk
Perceived risk is how the risk involved in an activity is felt by the person doing the activity, whilst actual risk is the risk that is present in reality.

Types of Risk Assessment
• Generic: A general RA where the hazards and control measures are relevant to all or the majority of persons carrying out or involved in an activity.
• Individual: A RA which takes in additional hazards etc which are only relevant to an individual involved in that task. This may be a staff member or service user.
• Specific: A RA which deals with a one-off or rare activity or event.
![Page 20: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
5 step Risk Assessment
1. What are the hazards?2. Who might be harmed?3. What are the current control
methods?4. What further control methods are
required?5. Review the assessment regularly.
![Page 21: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Things to consider within these steps…
• Activity• Environment• Equipment• Group• Individual
![Page 22: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Who should assess risk
• Teams rather than individuals• Person being assessed (if
appropriate)• People with relevant knowledge or
expertise
![Page 23: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Assessment of risk
Purpose to highlight, minimise and manage potential areas of risk - not
a tool to prohibit activities taking place.
![Page 24: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Why take risks with our service users?
![Page 25: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Continuum of aims
Leisure
Education or therapy
Physical
Fun,enjoyment, relaxing, letting the activities speak for themselves
Burns off energy, increases co-ordination and motor skills
Use activities in structured way towards predetermined therapeutic or educational aims
![Page 26: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Why take risks with our service users?
• Opportunity for meaningful, authentic, dramatic experiences - communication development
• Build and develop self-awareness and self-confidence
• Develop physical attributes• Exposure to a wider range of learning
opportunities and stimulating environments• Provide the opportunity to “live” life -
chance for adventure and psychological high
![Page 27: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Do we need to take risks?
• Is there other ways we can achieve these things?
• Activities as journeys or narratives• Too much focus on activity and
less on process
![Page 28: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Case Study
![Page 29: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Fred
• Early forties• Profoundly deafblind• Uses between 10-20
functional HOH signs• Enjoys finger spelling• Enjoys being outside
![Page 30: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Activity
• How to explain to Fred??? • What would his understanding be???• Physical risks• Psychological risks• Risk to our relationship???
• I would climb with Fred on same top rope
![Page 31: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Environment
• Low single pitch crag • Large flat safe area below crag• Easy safe path back from top of
crag• Easy route ideal for beginners
![Page 32: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Equipment
• Helmet and harness of concern due to Fred’s history
• Investigated and played with equipment in a relaxed atmosphere the evening before the climbing day…
• Practice to give idea of system
![Page 33: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Group
• Fred one of two service users with three staff plus centre staff.
• Each service user climbing would climb with two staff supporting with one member of staff supporting the non-climber.
• One service user climbing/abseiling at a time.
![Page 34: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Individual
• Scaffolded ‘climbing’ to increase understanding
• Observed and discussed scaffold sessions to assess
• Relevant medication to hand
![Page 35: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
If we are going to do risky activities, how can we
manage them?• AALA - on its way out but still a good
mark of best practice• Break down activities then scaffold
back up• Risk assess and review regularly• Assess and re-assess aims,
objectives and benefits, is this the best activity?
![Page 36: Joe gibson creative inclusion presentation without photos](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54b8aa0e4a7959b83b8b4853/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the
children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring
adventure or nothing.
