  • YMCA Digital

    Participant Agreement – Parent’s/Responsible Adult’s Copy

    YMCA Digital’s provision at NGY My-Place is a service for young people to explore their creativity and express themselves in an appropriate way.

    To safeguard the young people that use the YMCA Youth Service we would like to ensure that all music that is created under our supervision is vetted by parents.  In our experience, some young people have been tempted to attach inappropriate images to songs that YMCA staff have helped them to create and in some cases, posted them on social media. This could potentially have negative consequences for the young person therefore we feel that parents and carers should be aware of this situation and the fact that we and strongly advise against this practice.

    In our sessions, we make it clear that we never knowingly permit nor condone any child/young person to upload songs/content created on YMCA programmes to social media and other platforms. We also strongly advise them to not attach images to the recordings that do not represent them in a positive light as that this can have negative consequences for them.

    To ensure that YMCA does everything possible to avoid the occurrences listed above, our new procedures state that we need to  send the work to you for approval before it is completed and issued to the child/young person. After this point , obviously we cannot control the content and full control and responsibility is taken up by your child/young person and the responsible adult.

    We are unable to release anything until we receive this agreement, so if you could please supply an email address and telephone number so we can contact you with any recordings/images for your approval, we would appreciate it.

    We want you to know that we understand the level of care necessary when working with children and young people and we are delighted that parents/responsible adults feel the same way about the people in their care.

    Thank you in advance for your assistance.
