Advice for event organisers

Safety Advisory Group

The Wokingham Borough Safety Advisory Group (SAG) is formed from a group of local regulators and advisors who have a wealth of expertise to help you plan for a safe event.

Typically the SAG has contributors from:

  • Thames Valley Police
  • South Central Ambulance Service
  • Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service
  • Wokingham Borough Council representatives including:

    - Community Resilience
    - Environmental Health 
    - Highways & Transport
    - Licensing

Purpose

Our joint aim is to ensure entertainment events are safe for exhibitors, performers and visitors. We also hope to minimise any adverse effects such as noise and traffic congestion.

Entertainment events vary enormously in size, character and other factors such as hazards and risk. For this reason it is a difficult task to write guidance that can be applied universally. Naturally this also means that organisers of very large or complex events may need to also seek more specialist advice elsewhere.
