  • Consent - Photography, Video and Audio Recording

    Photographs, videos and audio recordings may be taken throughout the programme. Documentary materials will be of group rehearsals, classes and concerts.

    Purpose: Photographs, videos and audio recordings will be taken by National Youth Jazz Collective and used as a record of this NYJC project on websites, promotional campaigns, PR, marketing and funding applications designed to raise the profile of NYJC’s and our partners’ activities. Documentary materials will be owned by NYJC, but may be used by partner organisations (including Arts Council England) for promotional and research reasons.

    NYJC will not disclose any contact details of young people featured in photos, videos and recordings.

  • Medical/Access Needs

    We want to make sure your time with us is as comfortable as possible, please complete the information below to let us know of any medical and/or access needs.
  • NYJC Equal Opportunities Form

  • NYJC'S core funders (including ACE, DfE & Leverhulme) all ask us for data to show the impact of their investment so it would be really helpful if you could provide us with the following requested data - much of which uses categories as specified by our funders reporting templates - so we can report back to our artistic management, board and core funders at the end of each financial year.

    This monitoring data will be anonymised and separated out from your application.
