Students filming and taking photos on campus poses some risks. There is a possible risk of robbery if cameras are used in public places, but CCTV monitoring provides some control. Special care needs to be taken in poor weather like ice or snow, as using equipment in these conditions poses a possible risk of major injury, though gritted paths provide some protection. Chelsea Nicholls will avoid revealing equipment while in transit to reduce robbery risk and take extra care in poor conditions.
