These relate to all community events organised by Cruden Bay Folk Club and are intended to be welcoming, inclusive music sessions for participants of all ages.

Under-16 Attendance

Participants under the age of 16 must be accompanied at all times by a parent, guardian, or responsible adult. The accompanying adult remains responsible for the care, supervision, and behaviour of the child throughout the duration of the workshop.

Workshop tutors and organisers are not responsible for supervising or chaperoning unaccompanied minors.

Safeguarding and Safe Practice

We are committed to providing a safe and positive environment for all attendees. To support this:

• At least one responsible adult organiser will be present at each session.
• Tutors and volunteers will not be placed in situations where they are alone with a child participant.
• Activities are designed to take place in an open, group setting.

PVG and Background Checks

Where appropriate, organisers and regular tutors may hold PVG (Protecting Vulnerable Groups) membership through Disclosure Scotland. This is part of our wider commitment to good safeguarding practice.

General Responsibility

All participants remain responsible for their own personal belongings and conduct during the workshop. The organisers accept no responsibility for unattended children.
