Outdoor activities, both in the UK and delivered overseas, have a number of factors in common and smaller providers often have limited resources to access expert/ consultant level input.

 

The 2021 C:ORE Risk Conference focuses on a number of relevant areas of risk, with the cost of accessing this expertise essentially split across the delegates - the conference fee. At the conference, there will be an opportunity for all of those delegates attending the conference, who have a focus on outdoor activities, 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 outdoor activities in the UK and overseas, undertaking outdoor activities or responsible for planning and/or operational delivery and safety of such activities.

​

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.
