Adventure activities licensing proposed changes

Overview

From April 2025, the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) is seeking to update arrangements for adventure activities licensing provision. HSE is considering changes to license duration and assessment of applications that will ensure the licensing scheme continues as a fair, simple and cost-effective scheme, maintaining the assurance currently provided by the Adventure Activities Licensing Authority (AALA).

Given these potential changes we would welcome your feedback.
