Hi there, We can support the event safety side of Basildon Pride with a structured review of the brief, a comprehensive risk assessment draft, and an emergency-planning framework suited to a one-day festival with over 2,000 attendees. We regularly work in compliance, risk, and controlled planning environments, and we understand the importance of clear controls for public events and community-facing settings. One point to confirm is whether you already have a site plan, stewarding model, and medical cover outline, as these shape the final controls and emergency assumptions. We will keep all work and communication on Freelancer. The platform bid covers an initial phase focused on Initial event safety advisory phase covering review of the available event brief, identification of key hazards and control themes, and production of a draft risk register plus emergency-planning outline for the 2026 Bas; wider implementation would be separately scoped on Freelancer. Best Regards, 8veer

A successful event safety plan is one that people barely notice because the risks have already been anticipated and managed before the first attendee arrives. For a festival of this size, clear planning, coordination, and documentation are just as important as responding to incidents on the day. I'd begin with a detailed risk assessment covering the venue, crowd movement, contractors, emergency access, and public safety, then develop an emergency plan with clearly defined procedures, roles, and communication protocols. Everything would be documented to support compliance while remaining practical for the event team to implement, helping the festival operate safely without disrupting the experience for attendees. Could you share whether the event already has a draft Event Management Plan and Safety Management Plan, or would these need to be developed alongside the risk assessment??
