- If you need to make a cancellation of your workshop place after the second payment has been made we will refund your second payment if we are able to find a participant to replace you.
- We are unable to make any refunds within 2 weeks of the event as at this stage it is difficult to find participants and for them to make short notice travel arrangements.
