Activity	Hazard	People who may be harmed	Property which may be damaged	Risk controls already in place	Risk assessment (low, moderate, high, extreme)	Likelihood of risk occurring (rare, unlikely, moderate, likely)	Further action required to prevent and control the risk
Weather	It could rain or storm which could damage the camera and you won’t be able to hear the dialogue clearly over the weather.	No-one	The Camera	Check the weather daily while it leads up to the day we’re filming.	Low	Moderate	If it comes by surprise, carry umbrellas. Protect the equipment. Perhaps rescheduling.
Trains	Could be dangerous when the trains are passing and people could get hurt. They can also be really loud so it may cut off a bit of dialogue.	Anyone	Camera or props	Stay away from the trains when they’re passing and be sensible.	Extreme	Rare	Stay away from the tracks as a train could come at any time. Adhere to all safety precautions required by the GWR.
Train Station	People rush onto the trains, especially at peak times so people could fall and get hurt or a piece of property could get damaged.	Anyone	Camera	Don’t film at peak times so when people are coming home from work which is around 5-7pm.	Low	Moderate	Stay away from the platform when loads of people are exiting and film the scene we need to when it’s less busy.
Filming at train station	People may not realize we have permission to film there and may think we’re messing around so they could go and complain about us which means we won’t be able to film.	Our group and our actors/actresses.	None	Have the signed permit with us so that we have proof we can film there.	High	Unlikely	Try to film when not many people are near as many people might not want to be included in the film at all.
