Access

1. All events are suitable for participants wanting to take part in an Event in a wheelchair.

2. Unfortunately, mobility scooters are not allowed to take part in Events. The health and safety of our participants is very important to us and we cannot guarantee that each type of mobility scooter will be able to manoeuvre all course routes.

3. Participants can take part in Go Dad Run 5k & 10k with prams/strollers. All participants who are bringing a pram/stroller to the event should use the pram/stroller to accommodate their child and follow instructions given by the Area Event Manager and officials on the day to include starting the event at the back of the walkers to ease congestion.

Changes and Last Minute Arrangements

2. Go Dad Ltd asks that all participants and supporters refrain from smoking at all Events.

3. Go Dad Ltd respectfully asks that all participants and supporters use the litter and recycling facilities available within the venues and around the course. Please do not drop litter, but carry it with you until you can dispose of it responsibly.

4. All participants must write the following on the reverse of their official Go Dad Run number, which must be worn on the front of shirts during the Event:

  • their name

  • the details of any health problems or current medication

  • the name and number of a person to contact in case of an emergency

5. First aid facilities will be provided at the Events.

7. Go Dad Ltd takes all reasonable steps to minimise the risk of injury to participants during fundraising events. There is a stringent risk assessment process in place for each and every Event which aims to minimise or eliminate the risk to everyone taking part. By taking part in an Event, all participants acknowledge that there may be conditions or circumstances beyond our control that can lead to unforeseen risks. If you have any concerns or queries please contact us before agreeing to take part in an Event.

8. Go Dad Ltd reserves the right to refuse entry to an Event if for whatever reason it deems a person unfit to take part.

Sponsorship Money and Donations

All participants have a legal responsibility to ensure that all sponsorship monies/donations received in connection with an Event are paid to our official charity partners and we ask that you do this as soon as possible after the Event that you take part in.

Details of all 11 of our official charity partners and links to their websites where you can find their full contact details are on the Go Dad Run website.

2. Please note that we are unable to accept your sponsorship money on the day of the Event as Go Dad Ltd does not have the suitable cash handling facilities to fulfil this process.

Filming and Photography at the Events

1. By taking part, all participants, volunteers and spectators confirm that they are happy for their names and any video footage, stills or photographs taken during their participation of the Events by Go Dad Ltd or our third party partners to be used to publicise the event, by Go Dad Ltd for commercial and fundraising purposes and by our third party partners for their own commercial and marketing purposes. This may include, but is not limited to, television broadcasts, publications, marketing material and other documents that may be made available to the public.

Photographs of children will not be used in this manner without a parent’s or legal guardians written consent. However, we may use images where children are incidentally included for example, of mass participation in the warm-up exercises, on the starting line or as a general photo on the course. No personal details (including names) of an under 16-year-old participant will be used in any publicity materials without the written consent of their parent or legal guardian. We will not provide participants’ personal details to third parties.

2. By registering a participant under the age of 16 (or allowing an under 16 year old to take part in an Event), you confirm that their parent/legal guardian is happy for their images to be used in the manner described in these rules.

3. Go Dad Ltd and its authorised partners may appoint third party photographers to take photographs at the Events. All participants agree that their photographs may be sent to them, to other people featured in their photographs and to children’s parents/legal guardians where children are featured in their photos.

4. If you do not wish your photograph taken, please tell the photographer on the day.

5. All third party photographers at the Events have been instructed to ask for parental/guardian permission before taking any individual photographs of children at the event. Whilst photographers/videographers will try to obtain parental/legal guardian’s consent before taking images where children are more than just incidentally included, this cannot be guaranteed. This does not include photography of crowd shots, when permission will not be sought.

Liability

1. Use of the Go Dad Run website is subject to our website terms and conditions.

2. All participants enter an Event entirely at their own risk. Go Dad Ltd shall not be liable for any injury or loss to participants or their property that might occur as a result of their participation in an Event, other than in respect of any injury or loss arising as a result of Go Dad Ltd negligence.

3. All spectators attending an Event do so entirely at their own risk. Go Dad Ltd shall not be liable for any injury or loss that might occur as a result of their attendance other than in respect of any injury or loss arising out of Go Dad Ltd negligence.

Go Dad Run, your data and GDPR

Go Dad Run is not taking place in 2018 while we decide how to move the project forward together in the future.

During the Go Dad Run events of 2013 - 17 we collected the name, age, sex, address, email and phone number of runners a part of the normal registration process and to send them their race details and news letters.

Because no further runs are planned at the moment the previously collected runner data will not be used by Go Dad Run for any purpose or to contact runners unless in reply to a specific runner who contacts us themselves.

You have the right to request that we erase your contact details by emailing us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
