There are many different formats for risk assessments anf many different opinions on how often and how mamy Ra's you should have.
You are required to have a full written one that covers all areas of your home (and garden) and this be done at least once a year and more often if needed.
Tthere isd also a requirement to risk assess outings and again lots of different views on this.
Take a look at this Ofsted fact sheet as it tells you what you must have - anything else is personal choice.
