Cancellation Policy
No refunds are given except in the case of a cancellation by the Mentor.If you book a place please consider that failure to attend is a wasted space that could be enjoyed by someone else and also leads to food waste. Repeated failure to attend booked sessions will result in future bookings being refused.

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.
