Devizes Junior Eisteddfod - child welfare

Child Protection Policy:

 

The Devizes Junior Eisteddfod is run by volunteers, recruited from people who have shown an interest in the Eisteddfod and who have offered to give of their time; they indicate what sort of tasks they would prefer to undertake. Each volunteer on duty will wear a badge and any of them can be approached at any time in case of a problem; they will attempt to deal with it or indicate the responsible person.

While your children are in our care, we will make every effort to ensure their safety and wellbeing. However, we cannot do this alone, particularly given the structure of the Eisteddfod with its disparate venues. We cannot assume any responsibility for your children if and when they need to move between venues, and when they may be waiting between classes. Children must therefore remain the responsibility of their parent, guardian or teacher throughout the entire period of the Eisteddfod.

No photography or recording of any kind is permitted at the Eisteddfod, except by the official Eisteddfod photographer or the Press (by arrangement). It is the responsibility of parents or teachers who do not want their child to be photographed to ensure that their child does not take part when photography is in progress; this is best achieved by informing an Eisteddfod volunteer, or the MC at the final Concert.
