The primary entrant is anyone registering a participant other than or as well as themselves.

b. I agree that I have a legal responsibility to ensure that all sponsorship money collected in respect of my fundraising efforts is paid directly to CHSW within three months of the event day. If I am unable to take part in the event, all sponsorship money will be treated a donation, unless the donor requests the return of their sponsorship in which case individual donors must be contacted by the participant, who must then ask them to contact CHSW directly.
c. CHSW reserves the right to close registration when participant levels reach capacity.
3. Safety
a.

Any change to the event will be communicated to me as soon as possible. Should the event date be changed, your registration will be automatically transferred to the new date, or a refund offered on request.
b. CHSW reserves the right to alter the start time of the event. In the event of a change of start time the participants will be notified of the revised start time with as much notice as reasonably practicable. No full or part refund shall be made for any change in start time for an event provided the event takes place on the specified date of the event.
c. CHSW reserves the right to amend the event format or cancel the event due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control or for any safety related reason with no further liability whatsoever arising from such cancellation.
d. In the unlikely event that CHSW has to cancel or alter the nature of the event, all payees will receive an email notification via the email given during the registration process. If registrants would like to receive a refund they must request this in 7 days from the date of the email. After this date, if a refund has not been requested CHSW will treat any outstanding registration fees as a welcome donation to support children and families. If you have raised sponsorship and those sponsoring you which to have that money returned please contact us for further information.
e. If you are unable to participate, in extenuating circumstances, on authorisation from the fundraising manager, CHSW will refund any monies relating to your registration fee, after a deduction of a £5 admin fee. Any documentation sent to you (i.e running number) must be returned before the refund is processed.
