Raku Participant Responsibilities, Consent & Assumption of Risk

Raku is literally "playing with fire", and it is very dangerous but only if care and caution aren’t taken. You will be safety briefed and explained the steps involved but we expect full co-operation and consideration whilst taking part in this workshop.

Participant Responsibilities

I understand that it is my responsibility to:

• Wear proper clothing - trousers, long sleeved shirts and closed toed shoes
• Wear all PPE that is provided
• Listen carefully to the instructor and be aware of my surroundings and other people
• Cease participation if at any time I feel unwell or am unable to fully concentrate
• Not be under the influence of drugs or alcohol
• Inform the instructor of any ailments, injuries, medical conditions or disabilities that may cause a risk on my participation.

Informed Consent & Assumption of Risk

I, the undersigned, being aware of my own abilities and physical condition, and having knowledge that my participation in RAKU may cause injury, am voluntarily choosing to participate in RAKU. In making RAKU available for your participation, Fran Sandover of Outside Devon assumes no responsibility for injuries.
