It is a legal requirement, when we photograph, record or film you, to ask you to sign a Release Form to confirm that the material created is the property of The Sourdough School and The Sourdough Club, and that you are happy for us to use the material on any of our websites, social media or literature etc. This form below as you will see is legally worded, but that’s all it is, just you agreeing to the above. It is very straightforward but if there is anything you are uncomfortable about please just let us know. Thank you.
