Safety Policy and Participation Statement

Please read, understand and agree to our Safety Policy and Participation Statement. These are detailed below.

Safety Policy
It is important to understand that we can’t remove all risk to trek participants.

Our Mountain Leaders all hold the minimum of the Summer Mountain Leader Award, have an up to date Emergency First Aid qualification and hold their own Public Liability Insurance.

We also hold Public Liability Insurance. Participants are recommended to take out personal accident and cancellation insurance.

We ask you to ensure your own suitability for a trek, by using our fitness grading. This also applies to any under 18's you are responsible for. It is also essential that a participant's actions conform to any safety guidance from the Trek Leader. 

Participation Statement
All participants must understand and accept the British Mountaineering Council participation statement: “The BMC recognises that climbing and mountaineering are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions and involvement.”
