Natural England - Personal safety for all volunteers

Personal safety for all volunteers

Risks are not only present from the nature of the site or type of voluntary work you are involved in, but also from external sources.

No policy or precautions can guarantee the safety of every individual in every situation. However, being aware of potential risks and taking positive action to protect yourself can only be a good thing - not only during your voluntary role, but also at home, at work and as you go about your everyday life.
