Norwich Society Liability and Disability Access Policy
Events organized by the Society inevitably involve the provision of access to buildings and other locations that are associated with risks to personal and collective safety. Members and guests participate in events at their own risk. The Society reserves the right to refuse access to its events (or to any part of an event) to any member or guest who, in the judgement of a member of its Executive Committee or the Event Organiser, puts the safety of that individual or of other participants at risk.
The Society wishes to offer access to events to all members and guests and is compliant with the Disability Discrimination Act (2005). People who may find access difficult under normal circumstances wishing to attend events should contact the Administrator at the time of application for a discussion of the practicability of the itinerary and of any special arrangements that may need to be made, which the Society will do its best to accommodate. It cannot undertake to accommodate the special needs of such persons who do not contact the Administrator in advance of events and it may, for reasons of safety and liability described above, refuse such persons participation in parts or all of its events.
