We will all be able to get to the Windsor locations (Eton Bridge and Café) by foot. All the other locations are accessible by train. An All day train ticket cost £14 per person which we will be able to afford.

The main obstacle we will encounter will be large amounts of people, as many of the locations are very busy during the day. We will avoid this by utilising the less busy parts of the locations.

The main hazard will be cars and vehicles surrounding us whilst we are filming, we will avoid this by using common sense at all times and being aware of our surroundings.

We will be using Brixton as a back-up location for Slough.We will be using Slough Trading Estate as a back up for our London City location.

Risks with Locations:• Overall there are few risks with the locations which we are

using.• The main risk we will encounter is cars & vehicles. This could

be a key risk within the London City location, as we will be utilising a potentially busy roundabout. • However we will take special care with our filming and always

use our common sense as to not endanger ourselves.

The busy city roundabout

Obstacles with locations:• The main obstacle we will face will be the amount of people

and large crowds that will be surrounding our locations. • Many of our locations are iconic and often busy, and this may

cause people to turn round and look at the camera which would result in a less professional video.• However, we will do our best to avoid this by going at the

least busiest times possible, and going to specific locations that are not as busy.
