• Our organisation is responsible for the health, safety and wellbeing of our volunteers
• We understand that the activities our group undertake at today’s activity will be agreed beforehand with the CBC staff member, and that we are covered by our own public liability insurance.
• Our organisation is responsible for ensuring that our members are aware that:
  • they are personally responsible for their own health, well-being and safety, and that they should only perform tasks that they are fit and able to undertake
  • as volunteers engaged in voluntary activities they have a general duty of care towards members of the public, fellow volunteers and Borough Council staff and our members will act with reasonable care and attention
  • they should act with reasonable care and attention should they be required to use tools and equipment that are supplied by CBC or supplied by our organisation
