Health & Safety

The Club’s Health and Safety Policy is, through the Management Committee, to:-

1. Produce a document (entitled Guidelines for Members Taking Part in Club Walks) setting out:-
   1. The main responsibilities of Club Members and their guests for their own health and safety whilst out walking with the Club.
   2. The limited responsibility of walk leaders for members whilst out walking with the Club.
   3. Basic guidance on how best to deal with the more likely hazards that may be encountered whilst out walking.
   4. Guidance on the minimum requirements for those who walk with the Club.
2. As far as is practicable, provide each address of a Club member with a copy of the document.
3. As far as is practicable, ensure all Club members are made aware of the need to familiarise themselves with the document and any updates.
4. Regularly review and, if necessary, update the document.
5. Regularly review and, if necessary, update this policy.
