For under-18 volunteering: guardians read the activity, tick each permission, and confirm with a typed signature name and date before the shift.
Quick answer
Use it before any under-18 placement: guardians read the tasks, venue, supervision, transport and contact details, tick each permission separately and confirm with a typed signature name and date — with the young person's own agreement recorded on the same entry.
When a minor volunteers, the responsibility has two households: the organization's duty of care and the guardian's right to know what their child is doing. This consent puts both on one record: guardians read the activity details — tasks, venue, supervision, transport, contact — tick each permission separately, and confirm with a typed signature name and date. The child's own agreement is captured too. It documents agreement; it doesn't replace your safeguarding procedures.
