Why do I have to pay up front?
- To maintain appropriate group sizes all our activities have a limited number of places. We used to accept payment on the day, unfortunately on almost every occasion we allowed payment on the day we had very large numbers of no shows. This gave us several problems. 1. People on the wait list missed out, 2. Lower than expected numbers meant group dynamics changed and 3. We found ourselves over staffed with reduced income. I trust you understand our position.

Are the details for times & meeting places on the website
- No. We limit the number of people on each activity to ensure we have a suitable leader / client ratio for the activity. We also try to ensure that everyone who books has chosen an activity suitable for them. In the past we have published meeting times and places and been faced with having to turn away people who had not booked or who had chosen an activity clearly not suitable for their ability.
Can I meet you in a different place?
- Yes, Call us or email us to make a on off arrangement.
