http://www.third.org.uk/site/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/2011APR7-Shooting-Consent.pdf

The instructor will be the campsite warden who is qualified and will ensure the safety on the range. We are very happy that this is a safe and suitable activity, however due to the fact that this is a potentially dangerous activity there is extensive guidance available from the Scout Association here http://www.scoutbase.org.uk/library/hqdocs/facts/pdfs/fs120004.pdf. If you have any questions I would be happy to hear from you.

Next term begins on April 28^th. We hope you have a good break and Pesach.
