FAQ's

How to find us:
We are situated behind the row of houses and will meet all participants at the end of the drive. The postcode can take you further down the road, so if you are entering from the Fulford end (Hilderstone Level), then you will turn right into Moss Lane and you access us via the access road on your right, which is just before the row of houses.

Times:
The days operate between 10am - 2pm

What if someone doesn't want to do a specific activity:
All activities are optional and if someone doesn't wish to take part in their group activity, they will have the option not to take part and wait to move on to the next activity

Groups:
Once children are put in their designated groups, they will be expected to stay in that group for the day. If someone is struggling in their group, we ask that they speak to one of the well-being coaches who will try and resolve any issues.

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.
