Booking Terms & Conditions

IMPORTANT

By making a booking you are agreeing to the following

TERMS & CONDITIONS:

The team here at the Church Farm Hub strives to provide a warm and welcoming environment for everyone to enjoy workshops, safaris, events & camping. We believe this is a two way relationship to ensure everyone’s enjoyment of our facilities; we hope the terms shown below are clear in the spirit of achieving that goal.

In accessing the site, you agree to do so only for your own personal, non-commercial use and in accordance with these Terms. This is to protect the security of your own data, and also to protect the rights of others. Please read these Terms carefully as they set out your rights and obligations. Please also read our Privacy Policy, as this contains important information about how we use and protect your data.

BETWEEN:

(1) We Are “the Church Farm Hub “(the “Company” or “we”); and

(2) the “Client”, our “customers” or “you”, including (but not limited to) as a viewer or user of our website.

The wording Event is inclusive of Workshops & Safaris.

LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT

A contract between the Company and you will come into being in one of two ways:

When you purchase tickets online to any of our Events, on the date of your online purchase;
When you and we agree via email that we should provide a specific Event to you, on the date of our written and/or oral agreement or payment of deposit.

The terms and conditions are automatically incorporated into any contract entered into between us. We suggest that before you enter into any contractual agreement with us in the ways stated above, that you read through these terms and conditions. If you have any questions concerning them, please ask us. You should keep a copy of these terms and conditions for your records.

PROVIDING THE EVENT SERVICES

Once we and you have entered into a legally binding contract we will provide the Event Services to you on the date agreed between us without further discussion with you.
Our aim is to always provide you with the Event Services:
1. using reasonable care and skill;
2. in compliance with commonly accepted practices and standards in health, safety and hygiene; and
3. in compliance with the relevant laws and regulations in force at the time we carry out the Event Services.

BEHAVIOUR AT EVENTS: RESPECT AND SAFETY

When we partake in activities outdoors, we naturally focus on the beauty and natural environment around us. We ask that you consider the natural environment around you when you attend any of our Events, not only to promote a peaceful and enjoyable atmosphere amongst our other guests but also to ensure you can abide by any safety instructions we might need to issue during the Event.
Smoking is strictly prohibited whilst partaking in all Events.
You will be responsible for damage to our property or to the Site caused by you or your guests during an Event and you agree to make good or pay full restitution for the making good of any such damage.

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION: ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES

The use of illegal substances is prohibited at our Events, and anyone found using or in possession of such substances shall be ejected from our Sites and may also be liable to prosecution.
You may be ejected from the Site if, in our reasonable opinion, you are a risk to the safety of others at the Site and/or may affect the enjoyment of others at the Site and/or the running of the Event or may cause damage, nuisance or injury. Examples including being (or appearing to be) drunk, incapable, intoxicated or under the influence of illegal drugs, abusive, threatening, behaving anti-socially, carrying or having on your person any of the prohibited items.

ITEMS PROHIBITED FROM THE SITE

Due to our natural environment, the following items are prohibited from being brought onto our Site, and anyone found in possession shall be asked to remove the item from the Site, or be requested to leave the Event: weapons, ammunition, explosives, whistles, fireworks, or any other item which in our reasonable opinion, may cause danger or disruption to any Event or to other users of the Site and wider areas (regardless of whether or not such item is illegal or is carried for specific purposes).

PAYMENTS, INVOICING AND DEPOSIT PROVISIONS

Unless booking for an Event through a third-party online booking system, all fees for your Event shall be set out in an invoice submitted to you. Invoices will be sent via email unless otherwise expressly requested by the Client, and the full balance must be paid no later than 7 business days prior to the date of the Event. Our banking details are noted on each invoice for your convenience. Where we request a deposit to secure your booking, as noted on your invoice, we will not consider your event confirmed until the deposit has been cleared into our bank account.
When booking and paying for an Event through a third-party online booking system, you will receive a confirmation email. Please ensure that you include your correct email address upon registration. If required, a receipted invoice can be made available to you following payment. Please contact churchfarmhub@gmail.com to request a receipted invoice following your payment.

CANCELLATION BY THE COMPANY OR CLIENT: WORKSHOPS, SAFARIS AND EVENTS

In the event that the Company is unable to deliver the Workshop, Safari or Event, and provides you more than 30 days’ notice, the Company shall provide you a full refund.
In the event that the Company is unable to deliver the Workshop or Safari or Event due to government imposed COVID-19 restrictions, the Company will provide you with 3+ new alternative dates to move to. In the event that you wish to cancel your tickets, you may also request a refund (minus a transaction fee of £3.50 per ticket).
In the event that the Company is unable to deliver the Workshop or Safari or Event, and provides you fewer than 30 days’ notice, the Company shall provide you a full refund or you will be offered to rebook the Workshop Safari or Event during the following 6 months.
In the event that you notify the Company that you are unable to attend a Workshop Safari or Event at least 30 days prior to the specified date, you will receive a full refund (minus a transaction fee of £3.50 per ticket). Alternatively, you can request a voucher for the value of your booking, or move your booking to an alternative event (subject to availability).
In the event that you notify the Company that you are unable to attend a Workshop Safari or Event at least between 10-30 days prior to the specified date, you will receive a 50% refund (minus a transaction fee of £3.50 per ticket).
In the event that you notify the Company that you are unable to attend a Workshop Safari or Event with fewer than 10 days remaining prior to the specified date, you will not receive a refund.
For the avoidance of doubt, your non-attendance at an Event will be deemed as cancellation, and 100% of the payable fee will be charged.
In the event of a Workshop, Safari or Event being cancelled at a location not at the Company’s premises at Church Farm, you will receive a full refund. You will not receive a refund for any travel or external costs in attending the Event.

CANCELLATION DUE TO WEATHER; FORCE MAJEURE

On the rare occasion that adverse weather conditions, or other events or circumstances beyond our control mean that we must cancel your Event, we shall not have any liability under or be deemed to be in breach of our contract with you. Adverse weather conditions may include torrential rain, high winds, lightning, hail, or heavy snow.

CHANGE OF GUEST

We will accept a substitution of a guest by someone not yet booked onto the Event any time before the Event itself, but you must notify us of the change of attendee by emailing churchfarmhub@gmail.com.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

We have a thorough health and safety policy detailing the risks associated with our Site and Events. We would advise you to read this prior to your arrival. It is your responsibility to thoroughly read through this information, to make sure that you are able to take responsibility of yourself and any children in your care at all times.

PRE-EVENT INFORMATION: WEATHER-RELATED INSTRUCTIONS

72-hours prior to our Events we will provide information about our location, and specific details about the Site, based on the weather and environment at the time. We request that you pay particular attention to the weather forecast prior to the Event and dress appropriately for the outdoors. The Event will take place come rain or shine, although if it’s very wet, we’ll provide either cover or an alternative indoor venue. However, we do reserve the right to cancel an Event should we deem it unsafe to host based on severe weather.
