Geowalks Guided Walks – Acceptance of Risk
Angus Miller (trading as Geowalks) takes all reasonable steps to minimise the risks associated with this activity. However, you should be aware that certain inherent risks remain, which cannot be eliminated without destroying the character of the activity. Amongst other things, these risks can contribute to accidental injury or illness which could become very serious.
The level of risk associated with this activity is low, but may include:
1. unstable or slippery conditions underfoot, leading to slips, trips or falls.
2. physical effort, leading to tiredness or injury, particularly if you have existing medical conditions or injuries.
3. given the nature of the environment we will be in, circumstances can combine to make any incident more serious.
By attending a Geowalks Guided Walk, you:
– acknowledge that you have been briefed on the nature of the activity and the risks involved;
– recognise and accept the nature of these risks;
– confirm that you have declared any existing medical conditions or injuries that may affect your fitness to undertake the activity;
– agree to act in a responsible manner and not to compromise your own safety or the safety of others.
This in no way compromises your legal rights, nor does it release Angus Miller from his obligations towards your safety. It is merely to make sure you are aware of the risks involved and your responsibility for your own actions.
