Here at Andrew Simpson Centres, we are ready to take on the great outdoors over the Summer break! Our exciting and action-packed activity is aimed at children aged 8-15 who want to spend time on the water in the school holidays and experience a range of activities.

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
