Participation & health declaration

Last updated: 29 July 2026

Late Runners is a friendly, volunteer-run social running club. Running carries a risk of injury, so we ask everyone to read and agree to this before their first run. When you tick the box on the sign-up form, you're agreeing to everything below, and we keep a dated record of it.

By taking part, you confirm that:

• You understand running carries a risk of injury, and you take part voluntarily and at your own risk.
• You're reasonably fit to take part and aren't aware of any medical condition that makes running unsafe for you. If in doubt, you've checked with your doctor.
• You're responsible for your own safety, including on roads, paths and in traffic. You'll run sensibly, wear suitable kit (and something bright after dark), and stop if you feel unwell.
• You'll follow reasonable safety guidance from the organisers, and you understand this is a social group, not a coached or supervised session.
• You've given us an emergency contact and any health information you want us to know to keep you safe.

Nothing here takes away your legal rights. It does not exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or anything else that can't lawfully be excluded.

Under 18

Anyone under 18 must have a parent or guardian complete and sign the printable form before taking part. An online tick isn't enough for a minor. Download the parent/guardian form (PDF).

This is a plain-English starting point, not legal advice. Have it checked by a qualified professional before you rely on it.
