Better Places (Be Buckfastleigh) Hello Summer
Better Places (Be Buckfastleigh) Hello Summer
Be Buckfastleigh is a Community Interest Company set up to tackle health, social and economic inequalities in Buckfastleigh and other small rural places. We aim to make thriving and inclusive communities for everyone, especially those in most need of support. Hello Summer is our family activity programme that runs in the school holidays across three towns in Devon: Bridgetown, Buckfastleigh and Bovey Tracey. The activities include arts, crafts, music, theatre, swims, games, food, animals and nature, trips to museums, puppet shows and lego, giving children and their parents/carers the chance to really expand their horizons, be social, make new friends, meeting up with old ones, get active, be creative, get thinking and learning, try new things as well as having fun.

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 is an educational activity, and the ‘14-day cooling period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
