One form per child

Parental consent
& medical form

Every child taking part needs this completed and signed by a parent or guardian before their first session. It tells us how to reach you, what we need to know about your child's health, and who is allowed to collect them.

About this form

This is a consent and medical information form, not a disclaimer of liability. Under UK and Northern Ireland law a parent cannot sign away a child's right to claim for injury caused by negligence, and nothing here attempts to do that. What you are agreeing to is that your child may take part, that you understand hurling carries a risk of injury even when run properly, and that we may act in your child's interests in an emergency.

7What we commit to

Designated Children's Officer for this programme

Shay Deegan  ·  07860 532193  ·  shay.deegan@gmail.com

If you have any concern about your child's welfare, or about the conduct of anyone involved in the camp, please raise it with the Children's Officer.

Shay is also the lead organiser of the camp. So if your concern is about him, about another organiser, or about anything you would rather not raise with us directly, you should go outside the programme — to the Ulster GAA Safeguarding team, to your Health and Social Care Trust Gateway Team, or to the PSNI. You do not need our permission and you do not have to tell us first.

Submit this form

Fill in the sections above, then confirm below. A signature is not needed if you are submitting online — your name, the consents you have ticked, and the date and time are recorded instead.

Submitting opens your email app with everything filled in, addressed to the camp organiser — you just press send. If nothing opens, use Copy my answers and paste them into an email to shay.deegan@gmail.com.

Declaration

I confirm that I am the parent or legal guardian of the child named in section 1, that the information I have given is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge, and that I have ticked the consents in section 6 that I agree to. I will tell the organisers if any of these details change during the programme.

Who holds this information

The Social Slashers (registered NI charity NIC109510), as the organisers of the camp, together with Saul GAC and Carryduff Hurling as partner clubs.

Why we collect it

Who can see it

Only the coaches and organisers who need it to run the camp safely. Medical details are shared with the coach leading your child's group and the first aider on duty. We will share information with emergency services if your child needs urgent treatment. We do not sell it, and we do not pass it to anyone else without your permission, unless we are required to by law or we have a safeguarding duty to do so.

How long we keep it

Forms are destroyed three months after the final session, except where an injury or incident was recorded, in which case that record is retained as long as our insurers and the GAA require.

Your rights

You can ask to see what we hold about your child, have it corrected, or have it deleted, and you can withdraw any consent at any time. Contact shay.deegan@gmail.com. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
