The British Firefighter Challenge provides opportunity for operational Firefighters, retired Firefighters and invited guests to display their skills and celebrate the important benefits of participating in recreational activities. We want competitors to experience these benefits while recognising any physical activity entails risk. The British Firefighter Challenge C.I.C and the host Fire and Rescue Service organising committee strives to reduce these risks; they can never be eliminated.

By ticking the box, I do hereby acknowledge that:

• I intend to participate in the British Firefighter Challenge and realise that participation brings the possibility of injury, and I accept this risk regardless of the nature of injury and the physical activity chosen.
• I agree that participation in any physical activity and use of any equipment is at my own discretion or judgement on my own experience and competence level.
• I understand that by participating I am responsible for any injury as a consequence of these activities and hereby release and hold harmless British Firefighter Challenge C.I.C, their directors, employees, and volunteers, except where such harm or injury is sustained as a result of their negligence.
• I intend to participate in the British Firefighter Challenge, and I have discussed the possibility of adverse effects with a medical professional who is in agreement with my decision to participate.

I confirm that:

• I am a competent Firefighter or have served for a minimum of 10 years prior to retiring, and that I have trained for the event in which I am entering.
• I will bring the required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) meeting the requirements set out in the rules and regulations. I understand that if the PPE does not meet the requirements, or the PPE is contaminated, I may be prevented from participating.

Personnel authorised by British Firefighter Challenge may take photographs to be used in future publications and by media organisations. I consent to photographs being taken of me and my children and authorise the British Firefighter Challenge to use them for all media purposes.
