Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist supports campsite operators in verifying compliance with their site‑licence conditions and fire‑safety obligations. It focuses on the critical aspects of pitch spacing, fire‑separation distances, access for fire appliances and the overall fire‑risk management required for holiday parks and caravan sites.

Use this checklist for:

  • Ensuring caravan and tent pitches meet the minimum 6‑metre spacing and fire‑separation requirements.
  • Verifying that fire‑breaks, access routes and fire‑fighting resources are correctly positioned and maintained.
  • Confirming that staff competence, training and documentation are up‑to‑date.
  • Demonstrating compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 during inspections or audits.

Fully editable and shareable – adapt the checklist to your site’s specific layout and licence conditions.

Use this tool during routine inspections or before major events to demonstrate due diligence and to support fire‑service assessments. Record findings, assign corrective actions and retain evidence for regulatory audits.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 campsite operators must maintain safe distances between structures and provide adequate fire‑breaks. This checklist helps meet those statutory duties and reduces the risk of fire spread across densely sited caravans and tents.

Regularly applying the checklist improves safety culture, protects guests and staff, and can lower insurance premiums by evidencing proactive fire‑risk management.

Compliant with: Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.
