3. Safety

a. Squirrel’s Scramble Tree Adventure park is a forest with changing terrain and small streams, ditches and bridges running through it. It is imperative that all persons wear shoes at all times and that participants are aware of the changing surfaces and uneven terrain across the entire premises. We want everyone to enjoy all that our site has to offer, but it is solely the participants and spectators responsibility to be aware of their surroundings at all times.

b. The Activities comprise a challenging high ropes course and participation is not without risk as a fall could be fatal. All participants will receive detailed safety training from an instructor.

c. Squirrel's Scramble (PascoeLang Ltd) reserves the right to refuse admittance to the Activities or to remove a participant from the Activities should it deem it necessary to do so. This includes a participant who does not comply with the safety rules and advice and the safety system or who is deemed to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

d. After the safety briefing participants will not be directly supervised by an instructor. A participating adult must accompany under 9 year olds. One adult must accompany each child under 9 year old. Participating adults must sign a Risk Acknowledgement and Disclaimer stating that he or she will accept responsibility for the safety of him or herself and for supervision of children in his or her care.

e. All participants must be reasonably fit and healthy, at least 5 years old or 1 metre tall and must weigh less than 18.9 stones/120kg. Please note this further information on weight and size restrictions. At Squirrel's Scramble (PascoeLang Ltd) we operate with Edelrid Radialis full body harnesses as we believe they best suit our needs and health and safety requirements. The size of this harness dictates the size of customer that we can safely allow to participate on the Squirrel's Scramble course. If you have any concerns we advise that you visit a site at a time prior to your booking and speak to a member of the Squirrel's Scramble staff. Anyone who does not meet these requirements will not be allowed to undertake the Activities. It is your responsibility to ensure that all members of your party meet these requirements.

f. All participants are required to wear a safety harness provided by Squirrel's Scramble (PascoeLang Ltd) and fitted by an instructor. Larger or smaller framed participants may be required to wear an additional chest harness for safety reasons.

g. The Activities are physically demanding and require a degree of agility, strength and stamina. If participants are in any doubt as to whether they should attempt the Activities they are advised to walk the course before booking. If participants have medical concerns they are advised to consult their doctor in advance. Participants will be required to certify that they do not suffer from any medical condition which would make it more likely that they would be involved in any incident which could result in injury to themselves or others. Due to the physical nature of the Activities Squirrel's Scramble (PascoeLang Ltd) recommends that pregnant women should not take part. Pregnant women who still wish to undertake the activities will be required to sign a disclaimer confirming that they are aware that there are risks to them and to their unborn child and that participation in the Activities is at their own risk. (see Risk Acknowledgement and Disclaimer).
