For those running expeditions in the UK or overseas, whether as a school, adventure travel, commercial expedition, scientific project or first ascent, there are certain common risk themes-  a number of factors in common, from planning to delivery - with some services arranged whilst deployed - often including accommodation, transport, drivers and more.  The 2021 C:ORE Risk Conference focuses on a number of these areas of risk. At the conference, there will be an opportunity for all of those delegates attending the conference, who have a focus on expeditions, to network in a facilitated session and join a supportive network to assist each other going forwards, with those focus groups feeding back in to the 2022 C:ORE Risk Conference to present on issues that have arisen during the previous year and safety themes, as well as an opportunity to submit proposals for 2022 C:ORE Risk Conference speakers and subjects that you would like to see covered.

​

The C:ORE Risk Conference is highly relevant to those undertaking expeditions in the UK and overseas, or responsible for planning and/or operational delivery and safety of the project.

​

The C:ORE Risk team and speakers have years of experience training and supporting organisations undertaking these activities, including involvement in writing relevant safety standards dealing, delivering recognised training courses, with the aftermath of incidents, both in the field, to supporting organisations through the inquests and court cases that ensued.
