Show Safety

Tyrone Farming Society will operate a Code of Safety Practice

to ensure that animals are confined to designated areas and kept under supervision

at all times.

It is essential that visitors share safety responsibility and that they respond by playing

their part in keeping children at a safe distance from all animals and machinery.

Total commitment to safety from competitors, exhibitors and visitors

and their co-operation with the Stewards will ensure that there is no

accident or mishap to spoil their enjoyment and the success of the Show.

Whilst every care is taken in the organisation

of the Omagh Show, the Tyrone Farming Society cannot accept any liability whatsoever

for any accident, injury or loss sustained by any person attending the Show in any capacity, however caused.
