Health & Safety Briefing

Phil McCarthy • March 13, 2023

The model briefing in the link based on the model shared by the Diocese of Leeds for their St Wilfrid’s Way Pilgrimage. The Hearts in Search of God project is grateful for their generosity.


Group leaders should carry out their own risk assessment of the proposed route and adapt the briefing to address the risks identified. The written briefing (Part A) may be circulated to participants well in advance of the walk and the verbal briefing (Part B) given on the day of the walk.
