Tpas right to cancel 

We aim to make sure that the courses and events run as planned. However, there may be times when, due to circumstances beyond our control, we have to cancel the course or event. Should this be the case we will give you as much notice as possible. If you have already paid for the cancelled course or event we will transfer your booking to a rescheduled date or give you a full refund if this option is not possible. Should we run the course or event again, we will give you priority. We are unable to reimburse any expenses you may incur as a result of cancelled courses or events.

Please let us know in as much detail as possible, any kind of help you may need. Let us know if you need to bring a carer with you or if you require particular access. Also, let us know if you have any particular dietary requirements. We will do our best to meet your needs.
