Statement regarding image use

From time to time Preseli Venture may wish to use photographs taken during your activity or event for marketing purposes. We assume you are happy with us using your image in this way. Please advise us if you are not happy for an image which includes you to be used.

A STATEMENT REGARDING OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES AND RISK

We at Preseli Venture assume that our clients understand that there is risk involved in the activities that we provide.

High energy natural environments such as the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park are constantly changing; wind, rain, surf, ocean waves, gravity, wildlife and multi-tactile surfaces combine to produce an environment from which risk can never be totally eliminated.

The exhilaration and adventure of exploring such environments is what Preseli Venture is all about. We seek to minimize and manage these risks by providing relevant equipment and experienced, qualified instructors. Our instructing staff are professionals who operate according to the guidelines set down for each activity by individual governing bodies and our own in-house safety procedures. They are supplied with up to the minute weather forecasts and trained in risk assessment. It is up to you to listen carefully to what they say, and act upon their instructions. We believe that Adventure, in all its diverse forms, is an essential component of many people’s lives.
