Cancellation Policy

We recognise that circumstances may prevent attendance, however, we do appreciate a courtesy call or email if you are unable to attend. Alternatively, you are able to cancel your booked space on the booking system ahead of time. While we strive to accommodate a wide age range (5 to 17.5 years), we also aim to ensure an appropriate balance and age grouping for the benefit and safety of all participants. We reserve the right to decline bookings.

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.
