to show us details of this so bring a copy with you. Unfortunately, we
will be unable to proceed with the course without the insurance. See the ActiveCard and the BMC links below:

injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and
accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions and
involvement." (BMC Participation Statement) We are covered by professional
liability insurance but you are responsible for organising your own
CANCELLATION, CURTAILMENT & ACCIDENT COVER
