It also provides the opportunity to meet other people in a similar position and hear about their experiences in an informal but supportive atmosphere.

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. You can do this by emailing training@turtlecyp.co.uk or cancel on this EEQU website.

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.
