TERMS & CONDITIONS
TERMS & CONDITIONS.
CANCELLATION POLICY
We hope that once you have made a booking with us you will be able to join us as planned but we understand that sometimes things change and injuries happen. In that case we work to these conditions;
Payment
Full payment is taken at the time of booking via online bank transfer.
This payment includes a non‐refundable £10 deposit.
Cancellation
If you cancel your booking more than 8 weeks before your course start date we will refund the full cost of your course minus the £10 deposit. If you cancel before 6 weeks of your course start date we will refund 50% of the remaining course balance once the deposit is taken. If you cancel less than 4 weeks from the start of your course we are unable to offer any refund.
Transfers
At any point you may transfer your booking to another person if you cannot attend yourself. Contact us to arrange the transfer by giving us the name and contact details of the new attendee.
Up to 2 weeks prior to your event, we can transfer your booking to another course/date or issue you a credit note if you are unable to attend. For residential courses, retreats and Winter Skills 101 courses unfortunately transfers and credit notes are not available within 4 weeks of the booked event (and standard Cancellation Policy applies).
During the 2 weeks before your course start date, we are unable to issue any course transfers or refunds.
Please note that our 'Covid Cancellation Policy' offering a full refund at any time no longer applies (from 2022).
Cancellation insurance
We recommend that you arrange your own cancellation insurance.
Cancellation by Girls on Hills
We will endeavour to ensure that your course/guided run goes ahead as planned. However, we
reserve the right to modify the content of a course due to prevailing weather or other conditions and will always try to offer a suitable alternative itinerary or location.
In the unlikely event of cancellation, a full refund will be offered.
INSURANCE
Girls on Hills’ company Professional Indemnity Insurance (PII) protects only the company ‘Girls on Hills Ltd’ and provides no protection for customers attending Girls on Hills courses in the event of accident or injury. Participants undertake these events at their own risk and we advise individuals to take out their own insurance to cover their participation, as you might for any sporting event or activity holiday.
