    Default Registering back garden

    Hi all

    When i started I never registered my back garden as the fence was low and basically falling apart.
    i didn't even show the inspecter, just registered the front.
    Yesterday the landlord turned up and started building a fence whoooooo I am really pleased.

    Anyway, obviously after risk assessing can I use it before Ofsted approve??

    I remember the inspecter saying that you can class your garden as an outing? As long as its properly supervised

    I'm going to fax my risk assessments today but I just can not wait to start using it

    And buying proper outdoor equipment

    I'd suggest giving Ofsted a call, maybe they will send someone out to register it for you.
