Legal Declaration
Service User Agreement for Enable Ability Activities
This declaration outlines the terms and conditions for service users aged 25 and over with disabilities who participate in activities organised by Enable Ability.
1. Purpose of Activities
The primary purpose of these activities is to foster and embrace independence for service users in a safe and supportive environment.
2. Responsibility Statement
Enable Ability shall not be held responsible for the service user after the agreed set time of the activity, regardless of any incidents, including but not limited to accidents or injuries. It is the responsibility of parents, carers, or the service user to ensure appropriate arrangements are in place for the service user’s safety outside of the agreed activity time.
3. Parental/Carer Involvement
Parents or carers have the right to make the following choices regarding their involvement:
• Allow the service user to stay at the activity alone to encourage their independence.
• Collect the service user from the activity at the agreed time.
• Join the service user during the activity.
• Be on call during the activity to respond in the event of an emergency.
4. Consent to Participate
If a service user is unable to sign on their own behalf, their parent or carer may sign this declaration on their behalf, indicating their agreement with these terms.
By signing this declaration, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees to the terms outlined above, releasing Enable Ability from any liability beyond the agreed activity duration.
You are also signing to declare you have no history of past events which may place those attending the event in danger, either causing risk to yourself or any individuals known to you.
The purpose of this project is giving adults with disabilities the freedom to be fully independent without support and care from charity staff. Clients will be able to drink alcohol, smoke and vape whilst at activities if they wish. The charity would simply be facilitating the social meet ups.
The charity wouldn’t endorse activities such as smoking/vaping and will be encouraging everyone to drink responsibly when with us. Any challenging behaviour shown towards staff, other service users and/or members of the public will not be invited back.
Frequently asked questions
Our main aims are to encourage independence, improve confidence and self-esteem, and support the learning of social skills. To achieve this, we must be able to offer the people we work with their own space away from parents and carers. If you feel it’s necessary, parents/carers are able to attend.
All activities are run by a qualified member of staff. Activities will always be run by Project Leader, James, from Enable Ability. The charity has Public Liability Insurance up to £10m.
Yes, parents and carers are welcome to join us to assist if required.
All our staff/volunteers have to provide two references when recruited and complete an Enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service, formerly the CRB check) certificate before they are allowed to support. Regular training adhered to with the local authority.
This is the responsibility of the client themselves or the accompanying parent/carer.
