1. About us
This site is operated by Barker Scott Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 16998208, registered office 2 Shakespeare Road, Colchester, Essex, CO3 4HH). You can contact us at info@barker-scott.co.uk or 07407 184948. By placing an order you agree to these terms.
2. What we sell
We sell downloadable document templates - policies, procedures, risk assessments and related packs - and optional subscriptions that provide updates to those documents. The documents are professionally written to support compliance with the Care Quality Commission’s standards, but they are templates that you must review, complete and adapt for your own service before use.
3. Licence and intellectual property
When you buy a document, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to:
- use, edit and brand the document for use within your own organisation; and
- keep and update your copy as part of your own compliance system.
You may not:
- resell, sub-licence, distribute, share or publish the documents, in whole or in part;
- make them available to anyone outside your organisation, including on a public or shared platform; or
- present them as your own product for sale.
All intellectual property rights in the templates remain with Barker Scott Ltd. The licence ends if you breach these terms.

7. Our liability
Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited or excluded by law.
Subject to that, our total liability to you arising out of or in connection with any order is limited to the amount you paid for that order. We are not liable for how you implement, adapt or rely on the documents, for any regulatory outcome, or for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, or loss of business.

10. Governing law
These terms and any dispute arising from them are governed by the law of England and Wales, and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. If any part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
