Name of group / project: Flipside
Venue: Regular sessions held at Vibe Youth Centre and Various venues for trips/visits. From January 2021 to March 2023.
Flipside would like to include your mobile number in a WhatsApp group that includes all other group members. The purpose of this is to enable us to communicate with you for free and keep everyone up to date with what’s happening. Communication from us will include reminders about sessions/events/meetings or things that you need to bring to sessions.
All members of each group will be able to view your number, so it is important to receive your consent before adding you to the group. Ground rules regarding this will be discussed in our group sessions, so everyone knows what is and isn’t appropriate. Any inappropriate behaviour will result in you being removed from the Whats App group to ensure that everyone feels safe and comfortable to use it. Youth workers will support you if you are experiencing problems.
I consent to my mobile number being added to Flipside WhatsApp group for the duration of my time in the group. I understand my number will be accessible to everyone else in the group and that I can request to withdraw my number at any time.
