Notice to Members (the legal bit)
The Club has civil liability insurance principally to cover claims from third parties.
It is not Personal Accident Insurance for Members.
If an accident or incident occurs liability for damage or injury should never be admitted. This will be dealt with by the insurer when all the facts are clear.
Members are requested to co-operate fully with the walk leader in recording all relevant details of an incident. The safety of members is the paramount concern. It is important therefore that each Member appreciates that they have a responsibility to identify the steps needed to eliminate or minimise the potential for an accident and to safeguard their safety, the safety of those walking with them and the general public.
Members are reminded to take special care when walking on roads. Your walk leaders receive separate guidance to ensure your safety on walks so please be guided by them and any back marker.
