Risk Notice  

You understand and agree that you participate in the Event at your own risk.   

The Event is a recreational activity that may involve inherent risks of harm associated with physical exertion. Some of those risks are injury due to slippery or uneven surfaces, obstacles, trip hazards, overcrowding, collision with objects or people and the effects of heat, cold, dehydration and exhaustion.  

Injuries may include injuries from falls such as broken bones, sprained muscles, injuries to ligaments, cartilage or other soft tissue, as well as blisters, cuts and abrasions, and bites, stings or other injuries caused by water creatures and other animals around the event area. Injuries may also arise from exertion, including heart attack, fainting and loss of consciousness. By proceeding with your application to enter the Event, you understand and accept that the risks of participation in the Event are increased if you choose to participate in costume, using props, or if your movement is restricted or you are not a competent cruncher.  

Participation in the Event in a public place where people are present also increases your risk of exposure to and contraction of communicable disease(s), including but not limited to COVID-19.  

You acknowledge that the above is not an exhaustive list of all risks inherent in your participation in the Event and that there may be risks that are not known or reasonably foreseeable at this time.   

You warrant that you are in proper physical and mental condition and have no known medical conditions or disabilities that may be incompatible with your safe participation in the event. You understand that Cancer Council recommends that you consult a doctor before participating in the event, particularly if you have ever experienced medical conditions that may make it dangerous for you to participate in the event.  

Regardless of whether you have consulted a doctor, you agree that by participating in the event, you are aware of the risks involved and you voluntarily assume those risks.   

You understand that Cancer Council has not obtained personal accident insurance or any other insurance covering your participation in the Event and it is your responsibility to obtain any and all insurance which is appropriate for that purpose.  

You assume all risk to both you and your property during the event.  

Exclusion and Limitation of Liability To the extent permitted under the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) ("CLA"), Cancer council excludes liability for damages for harm resulting from breach of an express or implied warranty that the services will be rendered with reasonable care and skill.  

You understand and agree that, to the extent permitted by law, Cancer Council and any event sponsor (and any of their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives) exclude all liability for damages for any harm (including but not limited to personal injury or death, damage to property and economic loss and whether direct, indirect, special or consequential) to the extent caused by your failure to exercise reasonable care and skill, regardless of whether the claim is brought in tort (including in negligence), in contract, under statute or otherwise, where such liability results from breach of an express or implied warranty that the services will be rendered with reasonable care and skill.  

You understand and agree that to the maximum extent permitted by law:  

  • all conditions, warranties, guarantees, rights, remedies, liabilities or other terms implied or conferred by statute, custom, or the general law that impose any liability or obligation on Cancer Council or event sponsors (or their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives) are excluded (including consumer guarantees to the extent such exclusions are permitted under the law);  
  • neither Cancer Council nor any event sponsor (nor any of their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives) will be liable to you or any other person in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise for any loss, damage, cost or expense of any kind (including direct, indirect or consequential losses, damages, costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by you or any other person in connection with the event, or any malicious, criminal or fraudulent acts; and  
  • in any circumstances where the above exclusions (or any of them) are held by a Court to be ineffective or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, Cancer Council's liability to you and to any other person is limited (at its option) to re-supplying, repairing or replacing the service or the payment of the cost of supplying the service to you again.  

Section 139A of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) ("CCA") permits a term of a contract for the supply to a consumer of recreational services, to exclude liability of the supplier for the death and personal injury arising from the failure to comply with a guarantee provided in sections 60 to 62 of the Australian Consumer Law.  

You understand and agree that, to the extent permitted by section 139A of the CCA, Cancer Council and any event sponsor (and any of their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives) excludes all liability in connection with the supply of recreational services for:  

  • death;  
  • physical or mental injury;  
  • the aggravation, acceleration or recurrence of a physical or mental injury;  
  • the contraction, aggravation or acceleration of a disease; and  
  • the coming into existence, the aggravation, acceleration or recurrence of any other condition, circumstance, occurrence, activity, form of behaviour, course of conduct or state of affairs in relation to an individual, that is or may be harmful or disadvantageous to the individual or community, or that may result in harm or disadvantage to the individual or community, resulting from a failure of Cancer Council or any event sponsor (or any of their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives) to comply with a guarantee in sections 60-62 of the ACL.  

This exclusion of liability does not apply where significant personal injury is caused by the reckless conduct of Cancer Council or any event sponsor.  

Release and Indemnity  

You fully and irrevocably exclude and release Cancer Council and all event sponsors, as well as their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives, from all liability for any loss, damage, cost or expense (whether in negligence, contract, under statute or otherwise) suffered by you as a consequence of:  

  • your involvement in the Event, including in relation to death and personal injury;  
  • in connection with or in respect of any breach of these Terms and Conditions; and  
  • in connection with the publication or distribution of any material or information you supply to us.  

If any claim, including in relation to personal injury, property damage or wrongful death arising from your participation in the Event is commenced, you agree to indemnify and release Cancer Council and all the event sponsors, as well as their directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives, from any and all loss, damage, cost or expense in connection with such claim.Your liability under this indemnity is reduced to the extent that the loss or damage arises out of the gross negligence, fraud, criminal conduct or wilful misconduct of Cancer Council, or its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents and representatives.
