Important Information: Section 21 of the Firearms Act 1968 prohibits the possession of a firearm and ammunition by any person who has been convicted of a crime and sentenced to a term of imprisonment (or the equivalent for young persons) of 3 months or more.
This restriction applies even in supervised settings such as Scout events, clay pigeon shoots, or approved shooting clubs — including where no firearms certificate is normally required. It also includes airguns and shot cartridges.
By submitting this form, you confirm that you are not prohibited under Section 21 and give permission for the named young person to participate in the marked activities.
