Neither Prospect Hospice, its directors/trustees, staff or volunteers or venue and staff or anyone else involved in or with the organisation of the event shall be held responsible for any accident or injuries or other loss sustained by you before, during or after the challenge.

• Participants are trained during the seminar on how to walk on hot embers safely.
• Participants must be present and listen carefully at all times always following instruction.
• All participants must behave responsibly and any behaviour deemed unacceptable may result in removal from the challenge.
• The minimum age to take part is 15 years old. For the purposes of safety, anyone aged 17 years old and under must be accompanied and supervised by a parent or guardian with a parent or guardian signing a liability waiver for them.

• Dogs are not allowed at the fire walk event.
• Registrations are strictly personal, firm and binding and fees shall not be refunded for any reason or places transferred.
• Cancellation is unlikely and the organisers will take all precautions to avoid it, but should cancellation occur for reasons out of the organisers control, then participants will be notified as soon as possible.
• Should part of the venue be unavailable for safety reasons, due to inclement weather or reasons out of the organisers control, the organisers reserve the right to adjust the location or cancel where absolutely necessary.
