What this sheet is for

Check a kit against the contents list that applies to it and leave a dated record of what was missing, what had expired and what was put back.

Who it is for

Households, drivers, clubs, halls, site huts and workplaces — anyone responsible for a kit that is opened rarely and needed suddenly.

How to use it

Write down which required contents list you are working to, and where it came from.
Fill in the required quantity column yourself, one line per item on that list.
Count what is present, and write the earliest expiry date you can find on each item.
Restock, note what you added and the date, then sign the foot of the sheet and set the next check date.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: One kit, one check: what should be in it, what is actually in it, what expires first and what was put back. Print one per kit and keep the run of them together.

Write your own required quantities in. No contents list and no check interval are printed on this sheet, and that is deliberate. What a kit is expected to hold, and how often it is looked at, differ by country and by whether the kit belongs to a house, a vehicle or a workplace — and they change. Check what applies to yours, then write your own required quantity against each item. This sheet records what you found; it does not tell you what to hold.

Write-on lines: Kit location and reference · Kit type — home, vehicle, workplace · Check date · Next check due · Contents list used — and where it came from · Seal or tag replaced · Checked by · Signed

Contents — one line per item — the required column is yours to fill in

Questions

Why is there no contents list printed on the sheet?

Because there is no single answer. What a kit is expected to contain differs by country and by whether it is a household, vehicle or workplace kit, and the lists are revised from time to time. A list printed on a sheet in 2026 would still be sitting in a cupboard being wrong years later, so the required column is left for you to fill in from the list that actually applies to your kit.

How often should a kit be checked?

That is set locally too, and it also depends on how heavily the kit is used. The sheet has a next check due box rather than a printed interval — decide the interval from the guidance that applies where you are, write it down, and keep the run of completed sheets as the record that it happened.
