The document is a risk assessment for students filming and taking photos in college. It identifies potential hazards such as risk of robbery from using cameras in public places and slipping on ice while using cameras in poor weather. The degree of risk is rated on a scale from A to E, with using cameras in public places posing a possible risk rated C. Control measures already in place include using CCTV and gritting paths. Further actions planned include avoiding showing cameras when in transit and taking extra care when filming in poor weather.
