Parental Consent Form

This form is to be completed by the Parent or Guardian of the member named below who is under 18 years of age (child) on September 1st 2021.

By completing and signing this form, you give consent for your child to attend and participate in YFC Club or Somerset County Federation YFC activities (including online/virtual) and, when you are not in attendance, assigns the responsibility for the supervision of your child to the club/county officers.

The YFC Club or Somerset County Federation will take responsibility for ensuring the safe running of all its events by working with the venue management, volunteers and staff. YFC activities, including all face-to-face and online/virtual activities, will be staffed/supervised by at least two DBS checked Club Supervisors. The YFC Code of Conduct applies to all meetings/activities, including virtual meetings, and attendance will be in accordance with the NFYFC and Somerset County Federation Safeguarding Policy. In the event of an accident or concern arising involving a member under the age of 18, the Club or Somerset County Federation will liaise with the parent/guardian or club/county officers who are supervising the member. Details on this form will be held securely and will only be shared with volunteer, staff or other organisations who may need this information in order to meet the specific needs of your child.

The medical information on the previous page is complete and correct to the best of my knowledge and I understand that:

Do you have parental responsibility and/or legal guardianship in relation to this member? *

If this form is completed incorrectly the club or Somerset County Federation will contact you to ascertain the relevant information.

Occasionally, we may take photographs or commission external companies to photograph or film members participating at our Young Farmers’ Club activities, competitions and events on our behalf. When holding virtual events and competitions, the activity, or part of it, may be recorded or a screen shot may be taken. As part of the YFC activities, such images are used for the legitimate interest of the organisation, which includes promotional activity such as displays, scrapbooks, newsletters, websites, social networking sites or in publications, and the publishing of competitions results.

Live events, competitions or activities may also be visited by the media who will take photographs or film footage, which may lead to members appearing in these images in local or national newspapers, or on televised or internet news programmes.

In addition, the winner(s) of any competitions that are run will be publicly announced on various media and we would like to include a photograph of the winner. In the event that your child is a competition winner, we may ask them to send a photo of themselves for us to include with our announcements.

Videos and photos that are captured as part of our activities (including virtual events and activities) and which include an image of your child may be used, along with their name,* unless there are safeguarding or other reasons why you do not wish your child’s photograph to be used – please indicate this below/overleaf.

All events will display information regarding the capturing of images and who to speak to if there are any concerns during any event. Online activities will include a statement from the coordinator to alert all in attendance that the session is being recorded. If you have any concerns during an online session, please speak with the session coordinator.

No images will be sold but may be used for external press and news features. All images will be kept for use for a limited time, and then only for historical and reference purposes.

Please complete the details below to indicate your consent for your child to be photographed and for these images/films or audio to be used by Somerset YFC, Somerset County Federation or the National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs.

I understand that my child may be photographed/filmed taking part in YFC activities and the resulting images or footage may be used by the YFC, Somerset County Federation or NFYFC in printed or digital (website and social media) format. *
