They cotssider risk management to be an important part of th¢ir role and endeavour to follow best praciiee. During the year, the management teams at each venue have again discussed thc risks identified with the mernbers of the Senior leadership team and have ensured that proper CODtrols are in placc wiihin thcir venu¢.

The tN81ec$ alqo believe the gcncral cconomie Clima to be a rnajor risk to the group, pafticularly in re¢Cl of the $i8nifi¢ant rise in cosl of living over recent years. The 8eneral rise in cost of living is impacting on individuals. disposable incomes and as such will impact on the ability of ctOmerS to pay for the services offered by the company, as they choos¢ wheff io spend whai disposable income Ihey have.
