Behaviour Policy

General Behaviour

Behaviour which is not in the nature of Scouting or Guiding, will not be tolerated; any actions which bring the reputation of SSAGO, The Scout Association or Girlguiding UK into disrepute will be dealt with by the National SSAGO Executive.

Cancellation and Final Payment Policy

If you cancel after the 31/08/2021, we’re unable to refund any payments after this date. Cancellations that fall under our refundable criteria after this date can still be refunded. Please see the cancellation policy page for details. 

All payments must be made within a week of starting your booking. If you have not paid by this deadline, we will cancel your booking to make a space available for another SSAGO member. We have implemented this policy because of our numbers cap to ensure members who are holding places are those who are committed to coming. If your booking is cancelled before the end of the final booking phase you are welcome to book on again providing there is space.

Alcohol

SSAGO operates no official alcohol policy; however, where our members drink we encourage them to do so sensibly, and for clubs to adopt a rational approach to drinking. We actively encourage the membership to monitor and police itself in terms of what is acceptable and unacceptable drinking behaviour.

Alcohol is NOT an excuse for poor behaviour, inappropriate behaviour propagated under the effects of alcohol will not be more favourably viewed, than acts committed when sober. Nobody under the age of 18 must consume alcohol whilst participating in any activity under the banner of SSAGO, Scouting or Guiding. Anybody who does will be breaking the law and so appropriate action will be taken.

Anybody found to be supplying alcohol to a person under the age of 18 is also breaking the law and will have appropriate action taken against them.

Illegal Substances

The use of illegal substances of any kind will not be tolerated by SSAGO. The police shall be called immediately and a lifetime ban from SSAGO will automatically occur. Additionally, the member/s involved will have their name/s passed to The Scout Association and Girlguiding UK, and their University.

Covid-19

SSAGO members who book on are agreeing to stay up to date with WomBall's current Covid-19 guidance that can be found here. Anyone who doesn't may be asked to leave the event.

If you experience any issues in the booking process, please contact webmaster@ssago.org.
