FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

+-

What is a Caravan Park Risk Assessment?

A Caravan Park Risk Assessment is a structured review of the hazards on your park, who might be harmed, how serious the risks are and what you are doing to control them. It covers areas such as roads, paths, facilities, play areas and fire safety, and should be documented and regularly reviewed.

+-

Are caravan park risk assessments a legal requirement?

UK health and safety law requires employers and those in control of premises to carry out suitable and sufficient risk assessments. As a caravan park owner or operator, you are expected to identify significant risks and put reasonable controls in place – documenting your assessments is a key part of this.

+-

How often should I review my caravan park risk assessments?

You should review your assessments regularly and whenever something significant changes – for example, new facilities, layout changes, serious incidents or regulatory feedback. Many parks carry out a formal review at least annually, supported by more frequent inspections using checklists.

+-

Are the risk assessment templates suitable for all caravan parks?

The templates are designed to be flexible and can be adapted for most holiday, lodge, touring, camping and mixed-use parks. You should always customise them to reflect your specific layout, facilities and risk profile rather than using them unchanged as a “tick-box” exercise.

+-

Do the templates replace the need for professional health & safety advice?

No. The templates are practical tools to help you structure your own assessments, but they do not constitute legal or professional advice. For complex parks or higher-risk features, you may wish to seek specialist health & safety support alongside using the templates.

+-

How do these templates help with my Caravan Park Insurance?

Insurers increasingly want to see that parks have robust risk management in place. By using and maintaining clear risk assessments, you can evidence how you manage hazards, which can support your insurance placement, help underwriters understand your park and assist in defending claims.

+-

Is the Caravan Park Risk Assessment pack really free?

Yes – the templates and PDF checklists are provided free of charge to caravan park owners and operators. You can download them and use them within your business. We simply ask that you do not resell or redistribute them as your own product.

+-

Do I have to be an Insure24 client to use the templates?

No. You can download and use the Caravan Park Risk Assessment pack whether or not you currently place your insurance with Insure24. If you would like us to review your insurance alongside your risk assessments, we are happy to help.

+-

Can you help us create park-specific risk assessments?

We can discuss your overall risk profile and how it affects your Caravan Park Insurance. For detailed, site-specific health & safety consultancy, we may suggest you work with a specialist adviser alongside using our templates as a starting point.

+-

How do I download the Caravan Park Risk Assessment pack?

Simply use one of the “Download” buttons on this page to access the pack. If you have any trouble downloading or would like the templates in a different format, contact Insure24 and we’ll be happy to help.
