Use of this template as a guide will help organisers make sure all safety aspects have been considered.\nThe template has been designed to cover all types of events, from small fêtes with fewer than 500 people in attendance, up to large music festivals with over 10,000 attendees. This means some parts of the template may not be relevant to your event. In these parts, answer \"not applicable\".\nGuidance notes are included in each section to show the issues you should consider. You may attach extra details, where relevant, if they are not covered by the headings in this template.\nThis template is designed to be used alongside other national guidance – in particular, from:\n'The Purple Guide', for all aspects of event management and planning – it can be viewed or downloaded for a small subscription fee at \u0013 HYPERLINK \"http://www.thepurpleguide.co.uk\" \u0014www.thepurpleguide.co.uk\u0015\nHealth and Safety Executive – go to \u0013 HYPERLINK \"http://www.hse.gov.uk/event-safety/running.htm\" \u0014www.hse.gov.uk/event-safety/running.htm\u0015\nFor events involving 500 to 10,000 people, you should give a minimum of 3 months' notice, but we ask you to contact us at least 6 months before the event.\nFor events with more than 10,000 people, you should give a minimum of 6 months' notice, but we ask you to contact us at least 12 months before the event.\nIn each section, guidance notes/prompts are included to indicate the area to be considered.\nOn completion, it is recommended that the plan is thoroughly read through, and perhaps checked by a person who has not seen the plan before.\nWhen you have completed your EMP, we recommend you re-read it carefully. You may also find it helpful to ask that it be checked by a person who has not seen the plan before.\nCompleted Event Management Plans should be sent to \u0013 HYPERLINK \"mailto:licensing@brentwood.gov.uk\" \u0014licensing@brentwood.gov.uk\u0015.\nFollowing submission of your EMP, you may be invited to attend a meeting of the SAG to discuss the event and answer any additional questions that we, or the emergency services, or may have.\nFor further information or advice when with completing this template, phone 01277 312500 or email \u0013 HYPERLINK \"mailto:licensing@brentwood.gov.uk\" \u0014licensing@brentwood.gov.uk\u0015\nInformation is disclosed in confidence for the purposes of the Safety Advisory Group meeting.\nHow we will use your information\nWe will use your information to provide the service requested.
