Kits

If you are going to do it yourself, do it properly.

Most organisations that need a stress risk assessment are not going to commission one. They will do it in-house, from a template, and the template is usually the reason the result is thin. These kits are the method an assessment actually follows, sold to the people doing it themselves.

A plain desk in raking morning light with a ruler, a pencil and a squared-up stack of blank index cards.
The instruments, not the conclusions. What a kit gives you is the sequence and the paperwork; the judgement is still yours to exercise.

01 — The limitation

What a kit cannot do.

A kit cannot be independent of the people filling it in. This one does not make you independent; it makes you thorough. The duty to assess is yours either way, and a self-run assessment discharges it.

What it cannot produce is a conclusion that survives a reader who suspects you wrote it about yourself. A claim, a tender, an inspection, a board that did not commission the work: those readers discount a self-assessment, and they are right to. That is the commissioned assessment, from £6,500, and the kit's full price comes off it for twelve months.

If that distinction does not matter for your situation, the kit is the cheaper and better answer, and this page would rather say so than sell you the wrong thing.

02 — The two kits

Two subjects, the same discipline.

The two kits, by the question each answers and the framework each is built on.
No. Kit The question it answers Built on Status
01 Stress Risk Assessment Kit An HR or health and safety lead running the assessment themselves Can we evidence that we assessed the risk? The six HSE Management Standards, mapped to ISO 45003 Available
02 Workplace Suicide Readiness Kit An organisation deciding its position ahead of an incident Would we know what to do, before we have to? The areas BS 30480 covers Available

Neither kit reproduces any part of a published standard. Standards are copyright and are sold by the bodies that write them. What a kit contains is this practice's own instruments, referenced to the clauses they address, and buyers are told where to obtain the standard itself.

03 — The three tiers

Same papers, different amount of help.

Every tier contains the complete method. What rises is how much of the assessor's time comes with it. Prices are the same for both kits and include no VAT.

The three tiers, what each contains, and who each is for.
Tier Price What it contains Who it is for
Papers £850 Every instrument, plus the full worked specimen report You have run assessments before and want the method, not the teaching
Guided £1,250 The papers, plus about ninety minutes of recorded walkthrough First time doing this, and the cost of gathering the wrong evidence is real
Reviewed £1,950 The papers, the walkthrough, and an hour on your draft findings The findings are going to a board and you want them read first

The Reviewed tier is capped at four sessions a month across both kits. That is not scarcity marketing: an hour on your draft findings costs half a day once the pre-reading is done, and there is one practitioner.

Prices are totals. Nothing is added at checkout, and no VAT is charged because Lighthouse Mentoring is not VAT registered. See the terms of supply and the refund policy before buying.

Not sure which of the two you need?

Say what has prompted the question and you will get a straight answer, including that you do not need either. The first conversation costs nothing and does not end in a proposal you did not ask for.
