Rules:
Rules of the Sliabh Luachra Hill Walking Club. (For the safety and enjoyment of it's members.) I accept that mountaineering / hill walking is an activity with a danger of personal injury or death. I am aware of and shall accept these risks and wish to participate in these activities voluntarily and shall be responsible for my own actions and involvement. 1 Participants in Club Activities should be aware that they are responsible for their own actions and decisions, especially if they choose to disregard the advice of the walk leaders. 2 In an effort to respect the environment and landowners, the number of cars travelling to any start point should be limited and therefore car pooling and sharing is encouraged. We should leave only footprints and take only memories therefore all our rubbish should be taken home with us. (including banana skins and apple cores. ) 3 It is irresponsible to go on a walk if you are unwell or injured.. 4 Walkers should bring with themselves the following essential items: Strong walking boots, with good ankle support. A hooded waterproof coat. Waterproof trousers are also highly recommended. Suitable trousers. These must not be jeans, which once wet become very heavy and cold and do not dry out quickly enough. Plenty of warm clothing, including a jumper, gloves and a warm hat, Sufficient liquids. Sufficient food. Whistle Watch Survival bag Torch with a battery, a back up battery Individual first aid kit to cater for personal conditions, e.g. inhalers Emergency rations such as chocolate Some form of personal identification and the name of someone who can be contacted in the event of an accident, e.g. next of kin, friends. 5 The leader has the right to refuse anyone who is not adequately equipped or anyone who in the leader's opinion is unfit to walk. 6 The leader has the right to extend, curtail or alter the route from that described at the walk start. All walkers have a Duty of Responsibility towards the leader and the group as a whole. This means that they must not do anything to undermine the authority of the leader nor the safety of the group. Walkers must follow all reasonable instructions from the leader. 7 For everybody's safety and security those starting out together must stay together during the walk. 8 If you go ahead of the walk leader of your own accord, then you are no longer considered to be part of the group and you are responsible for your own actions and for those who follow you. 19 If a walker wishes to stop for whatever reason while the main group is walking they must inform the leader or sweeper if one has been appointed. 10 After two introductory walks, walkers with the approval of the committee, must decide on joining the Club. 11 Walkers using walking poles do so with due care to other walkers.
