Code of Conduct

CODE OF CONDUCT.

 

For all Entrants.

 

  1. Objective

The All Ford Day code of conduct applies to all entrants and committee members (herein refered to as Members) and sets out the standards within which Members, rx including their family members, buy viagra friends or acquaintances are expected to act when attending any All Ford Day event or meeting and any other associated club event or meeting. In summary members are expected to act in a manner that will not bring All Ford Day into disrepute. Unacceptable behaviour will not be tolerated during any All Ford Day event, treat or an associated event or meeting. The All Ford Day intends that the spirit of the Code of Conduct is adopted as well as the letter of the standards within. The All Ford Day expects a high standard of behaviour at all times which is essential to maintaining the trust and confidence of  the General Public.

The Code of Conduct is about developing a consistent understanding of desired behaviours, towards each other and any persons that we come into contact with who may not necessarily be an Entrant of the All Ford Day.

Not every circumstance is covered in this document, however it provides the guide for a commonsense approach.
