If you’ve ever had to plan an event, you’ll know how much work it involves. You have a lot of responsibilities, many of which contribute directly to other people’s enjoyment of the day. Things like entertainment and catering can influence whether guests remember your event for the right – or wrong – reasons.
A lot of work goes on behind the scenes as well, and this can have a huge impact on the success of the event. Think of things like negotiating the right prices, arranging logistics for speakers or entertainers, and getting insurance. These are decisions and actions, among many others, which might go unnoticed by attendees, but all contribute to the success of the event.
This extends to the safety of the people who run, assist with and attend the event too. You have a duty of care to these people, so health and safety requirements should be at the forefront of your mind throughout the planning stages, as well as on the day.
