For the organisers to run both a Motorsport and COVID safe event, will require all involved to accept that things will be different to normal.
Our key objective, as well as running a traditional safe event must be the protection from, and avoidance of, the further spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. To this end, usual responsibilities will be severely curtailed. Whilst physical contact is now prohibited, the observation and reporting role is elevated in importance. Please accept that this in no way diminishes YOUR value to the event.
COVID-19 REQUIREMENTS
We are required to meet all the requirements of, but not limited to Motorsport UK, the UK Government, Local Authorities and most importantly the landowners. Attending the event requires compliance with several unusual procedures. If you are unable or unwilling to comply with these then please do not attend.
These include:
•YOU MUST NOT ATTEND IF YOU ARE DISPLAYING ANY SYMPTOMS OR POTENTIAL SYMPTOMS RELATING TO INFECTION OR POSSIBLE INFECTION WITH THE CORONA (COVID-19) VIRUS.
• YOU MUST COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR SOCIAL DISTANCING, SANITISATION AND THE WEARING OF FACE MASKS AS DIRECTED BY THE ORGANISERS.
• MOTORSPORT UK GUIDELINES STATE FACE MASKS MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES WITH VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS. MEDICAL EXEMPTIONS ARE ALSO NO LONGER PERMITTED.
MOTORSPORT UK FACE MASK REQUIREMENTS CAN BE FOUND HERE
• YOU MUST TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING YOU BRING WITH YOU, INCLUDING SIMPLE ITEMS SUCH AS PAPER, FOOD COVERINGS, CANS AND BOTTLES.
Please accept that these requirements are for your own safety, the safety of others and for the protection of other users of the venue when we have gone. Be mindful that rallying is running under a waiver from the Department of Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). We all want to be able to continue running Clubman rallies; by sticking to guidelines, by wearing of masks and by social distancing we can demonstrate to organisations, landowners and most importantly the public that motorsport is taking a responsible attitude towards being COVID secure.
By signing on below you agree to the following statements !
ALL PERSONS APPOINTED TO ACT IN AN OFFICIAL CAPACITY AT THE MEETING MUST SIGN BELOW. Written agreement of a parent or guardian must also be obtained in respect of Officials under 18 years of age
I agree to act in official capacity at this meeting and in consideration of this the organising club(s) have effected for my benefit a Personal Accident Insurance Policy for death or benefits as prescribed more specifically by Motorsport UK. I have been given an opportunity to read the General Regulations of Motorsport UK and, if any, the Supplementary Regulations for this event and agree to be bound by them. I declare that I am physically and mentally fit to carry out my duties and that I will inform the organisers immediately should any change in my condition occur which I have reason or ought to have reason to believe would affect my ability to carry out my duties. I acknowledge that I understand the nature and type of competition and that as an official, I may be exposed to the potential risk inherent in motor sport and I will undertake my duties with their associated risks with due and proper regard for my safety and that of others. Further, I understand that all persons having any connection with the promotion and/or organisation and/or conduct of the event are insured against loss or injury caused through negligence. I declare that I am not suffering from any infirmity or physical disability likely to affect the performance of my duties as an official of the event
I am not currently experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19 and have not done so for 14 days. I have not knowingly been in contact with anyone showing symptoms within the last 14 days, except as a healthcare professional. If after submitting this form I do knowingly come into contact (except as a healthcare professional) with someone with COVID-19 or if I start to exhibit any of the signs indicating that I may be infected I will immediately withdraw from the event, notify Motorsport UK and ensure that my close contacts also do not attend. Should I become ill at or start to exhibit COVID-19 symptoms at the event I shall withdraw safely and notify the Secretary of the Meeting by telephone / SMS accordingly including identification of those others who I have come into contact with at the event. In addition, I confirm that the symptomatic person will as soon as practicable contact the NHS for the purposes of test and trace
I agree to abide by all Government and Motorsport UK requirements imposed in respect of COVID-19. I understand that Motorsport UK Guidance on COVID-19 in relation to Events has Regulatory status and to the extent applicable shall supersede the General Regulations by virtue of GR A.2.4. Breach of this obligation may lead to disciplinary action being taken (C.1.1)
I understand and agree that my personal data is being processed solely for the purposes of running this Event and may be used for the purposes of COVID-19 infection tracing, and will be handled by the organisers in accordance with Motorsport UK data protection policy: www.motorsportuk.org/data-protection
I hereby agree to abide by all applicable Motorsport UK Policies and Guidelines including but not exclusively Safeguarding and Anti Alcohol and Drugs policies
MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS. All doctors attending motor sport meetings as medical officers must be fully registered with the General Medical Council, must be members of a recognised medical defence organisation and be covered for work outside a hospital. Doctors must be competent in the field in which they are working and must be aware that they are expected to provide themselves with such equipment as they deem necessary for the proper performance of their duties (G15.1).
Motorsport UK Permit Number: 121010
Note: All activities will be undertaken in accordance with Motorsport UK Under 18 Marshal Policies. No responsibility for the personal
equipment/clothing and effects can be accepted by the organisers, as Motorsport UK Motor Clubs do not provide automatic insurance cover in
respect to such items. Personal accident cover is automatically provided by Motorsport UK for all signed-on volunteer officials – full details can
be found in the current Motorsport UK Yearbook.
I have read and understand the consent process requirements above and agree to the above-named young person acting as a volunteer official on this event. Furthermore, where applicable, I agree that the named adult may act as temporary carer (as referred to in the Motorsport UK Under 18 Marshal Policies) for the duration of the event (Motorsport UK Under 18 Marshal Policy is available here)
If it becomes necessary for the above-named young person to receive medical treatment, and I cannot be contacted to authorise this, I hereby give my general consent to any necessary medical treatment and, where applicable, authorise the temporary carer to sign any document required by the hospital authorities.
Note: The medical profession takes the view that the parent/guardian consent to medical treatment cannot be delegated. This is explicit in The Children’s Act 1989. Thus, medical consent forms have no legal status and a doctor or nurse insisting on the consent of a parent/guardian to a particular treatment has the right to do so. However, it can be a comfort to medical staff to have general consent in advance from parents/guardians or to have a temporary carer on hand able to sign forms required by medical authorities
