EXISTING SITE HAZARDS
The list below details the significant hazards that exist on the event fields. Every effort is made to reduce the risk to those attending the event but, as exhibitors and traders, you must take account and plan your activities around these existing issues:
- The event fields are grass and as such are uneven and pose slip and trip hazards. We recommend suitable footwear is worn.
- The event fields have a slight gradient in places. Care must be taken when loading/unloading vehicles. Vans and lorries must be positioned facing down the gradient so as to prevent any items falling out.
- When possible, metal trackways will be laid to assist vehicles navigating the event fields. They are laid on top of the ground and then anchored creating a step of approximately 2 inches. This presents a trip hazard.
- The speed limit of 5mph on the trackway and across the site, will be rigidly enforced. • The trackway can become slippery when wet.
- Please do not park under tree canopies, trees have a post and rope protection area around them.
- The event is located within the New Forest National Park. To avoid light disturbance to wildlife, neighbouring residents and other Exhibitors at night, the event fields are not lit in all areas. We recommend bringing a torch to use at night.
- There is a stream and pond between Yellow Field and Red & Green Field – no access is permitted to these areas
