SOME GENERAL POINTS

For each Night Away activity (and very occasionally for other activities) we need a signed, paper copy of the H&P form.

This must be on a separate piece of paper from any other form.

We need to correlate the Health and diet information ahead of the activity.

WHEN TO RETURN

Generally we need this one week before the activity, to allow the information to be processed. Exceptions are:

Summer Camp: the deadline is a few weeks before.

If one activity is soon after another, we try to combine the form for those scouts doing both. A new one is then not needed.

There is a due date, both on the letter containing the form and on the activity's web page.

Please ensure that the H&P form (and any other form, such as for a water activity, if indicated) are handed in by this date. Do not leave it until the last minute.

H&P forms completed more than 4 weeks before the activity will not be accepted.

WHERE TO FIND IT

Currently the form is included on the letter with final information about the activity. These letters (pdf) can be accessed via the Camp Information page or the Newsletters page of the web site.

The form is also available as a pdf or a MS Word form. Either can be printed off and filled out by hand
