Positive risk-taking

Plain English definition

From:

Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster

Think Local Act Personal

Supporting people to take everyday risks as safely as possible, and enabling people to have more choice and control over their lives. It is about looking at the benefits of doing something in comparison with the risk of harm if it goes wrong, and recognising that protecting someone too much may mean they live a less good life.
