Health considerations at major events (mass gatherings)


This presentation was delivered in 2011, 2012 and in 2013 to students at the University of Canberra who are undertaking the unit: sports as entertainment. This presentation provides an overview of some key points for event managers, when considering health care for participants and/or spectators of their event. In particular this presentation focused on event managers of sporting events.

My presentation mentions the Bradford City Football Stadium disaster. The original footage from this event can be found on YouTube (below). The disaster starts to unfold at the 30 second point.
   

Additionally, footage from the Hillsborough stadium disaster may be of interest, this is also available on YouTube:
