SO YOU WANT TO HOLD A BULLDOG WALK!
PLEASE NOTE: Walks held on hot days may be cancelled at short notice. Please check the walks own Face Book page for up to date information before setting off if the temperature is more than 20 degrees.
Make sure the route doesn't trespass on private land and if using council land ensure there are no bye laws regarding large gatherings. Ensure you keep dog's on the lead where signposted to do so and pick up properly after your dog, putting the bags in the dog waste bins not normal litter bins.
Walks held in local parks often need permission from the park ranger and/or the local council.
You will require public liability insurance, if the walk is 100% in aid of Bulldog Rescue you are able to use our insurance policy, you will be emailed a copy once you have registered your walk. You can use it again on future walks but ONLY if they are also held for Bulldog Rescue and they MUST be registered with us in advance. If you are not donating the full amount to Bulldog Rescue (ie: you are splitting the money with another charity) you will not be able to use our policy and will need obtain insurance independently. This can be arranged via http://www.insuremyevent.co.uk and typically costs about £30. If you decide not to have Public Liability Insurance it will be at your own risk, Bulldog Rescue will not be held liable for any accident or incident that occurs at your event.
You must register the event with Bulldog Rescue, this will also help ensure that walks don't clash or are held too close together in the same area, if your walk is not registered in advance you will not be able to use our insurance certificate.
STATEMENT FROM THE EDWARD FOUNDATION: "Due to insurance limitations, the Edward Foundation are unable to share donations or funds raised from Bulldog Rescue walks and events. We have agreed with Bulldog Rescue that people are able to do a single raffle in the name of EF but ALL proceed from a BDR registered walk/event must go to BDR"
