Consent for children under 16 (Gillick Competence)

Everyone aged 16 or more is presumed to be competent to give consent for themselves, unless the opposite is demonstrated.

If a child under the age of 16 has 'sufficient understanding and intelligence to enable him/her to understand fully what is proposed' (known as Gillick Competence), then they will be competent to give consent for him/herself.

Young people aged 16 and 17, and legally 'competent' younger children, may therefore sign this consent form for themselves, but may wish a parent to countersign as well.
