We encourage attendees to arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the commencement of your course. This will allow you time to familiarise yourself with the amenities. Meet the tutor and your fellow participants and enjoy a coffee or tea. 

We will endeavor to supply the teacher advertised for any Course but reserve the right to change the teacher, timing or content of any course due to the unavailability of any teacher for any Course at any time.

Please pay particular attention to the details of each Course prior to booking. If you have a disability/additional support needs please contact us before booking as aspects of some Courses may be unsuitable due to the nature of the locations. Please ensure that you provide us with full details of any specific requirements that you may have and again we will endeavor to accommodate you.
