This is for the person attending the Jamboree - either you, or your youth depending on the profile you're completing!

Please let us know how you'd like to be referred by, as well as the date of birth and gender. We're limited to the options the Jamboree requires, which is why a specific list is provided. You can also provide us with your pronouns.

We also ask that you provide your primary medical provider's contact information. If the participant seeks medical attention at the Jamboree, we can share that information with the medical provider and request that records be sent back to them - however we can't guaranteee that.

If you select “Yes” to the known allergies question, a series of more specific questions about food related allergies, their severity, and the required response will appear; please complete this information with as much detail as possible.

Additionally, you can enter any environmental or medication allergies; this information will not be shared with the Polish Jamboree team, but rather used by our own Health & Safety team to ensure you have a safe and amazing experience.

Dietary needs - If you have any requirements or preferences, the Jamboree has provided us with a list of options that we may submit to them. How they plan to use this information is not currently known, but will be shared in the coming months.
