+ | ===== Child Safety Policy ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Whilst //Tales Untold// is designed for adults first and foremost, we acknowledge that the logistics of childcare during LARP events can be difficult to organise and we do not want this to be a barrier for attendees with young children. The Child Safety Policy below details the reasonable support we can provide as Head Refs, and the responsibilities of Players and Crew attending an event where a child is present. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Responsibilities of the parent/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | By bringing an young child to //Tales Untold//, parents and guardians must accept that: | ||
+ | * **//Tales Untold// was written for players over the age of 18.** | ||
+ | * By default, children should be treated below the abstraction layer, as an extension of the parent/ | ||
+ | * Within the bounds of our [[acceptable_themes|Acceptable Themes Policy]], //Tales Untold// contains several themes which we consider inappropriate for children, as well as props and special effects which may be frightening or unsettling. While attendees are asked to be mindful of their behaviour around children, responsibility ultimately falls with the parent/ | ||
+ | * As below, the Head Refs will aim to give adequate warning to parents/ | ||
+ | * **Parents and guardians are responsible for the care, supervision and safety of the child during the event.** | ||
+ | * Children must never be left unattended on site. We ask that parents and guardians stay with their child at all times; no other attendee should be held responsible for childcare during the event. If you are not confident that you can supervise your child at all times, please do not bring them to //Tales Untold//. | ||
+ | * Parents and guardians are responsible for providing suitable food and accommodation for any child they bring to the event. Baby-changing facilities are included on-site for E4 and E5. | ||
+ | * You should assume that hazards typical of any outdoor event (e.g. trip hazards, insect bites, allergens) will be present. If you have any specific questions about on-site safety, please get in touch with the Head Refs in advance and we would be happy to discuss specifics with you. | ||
+ | * The Head Refs will aim to give adequate warning to parents/ | ||
+ | * **Some spaces are not safe for children.** | ||
+ | * No child may enter any space where combat is permitted, i.e. Quests and the Proving Ground. | ||
+ | * Other spaces may be deemed out-of-bounds for children at the discretion of the Head Refs, catering team and site owners. The Head Refs will aim to give you as much notice as possible if this is the case. | ||
+ | * **The //Tales Untold// Child Safety Policy may vary event to event.** | ||
+ | * Our ability to support children and their parents/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Responsibilities of other attendees === | ||
+ | |||
+ | With the exception of the parent/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * **Be respectful.** | ||
+ | * Although responsibility for the safety of a child lies with the parent/ | ||
+ | * As with any form of harassment, harassment of a parent/ | ||
