TDLR don’t be a d**k.

The purpose of our code of conduct is to ensure that all members feel safe, welcome, and encouraged whenever they are involved with BUS. We wish to maintain the inclusive community we have built up; however we can only do so with your help.

Anyone found to be in breach of this code of conduct will find themselves facing disciplinary action. This is including, but not limited to, a verbal warning, exclusion from a single BUS event, or overall expulsion from BUS. Incidents deemed by the welfare officer/committee to be of a particularly serious nature can and will be reported to the governing body of Skydiving in the UK, British Skydiving.
