Then we must without delay refund to you the price for those Goods which have been paid for in advance, but we can retain any separate delivery charge. This does not affect your rights when the reason for the cancellation is any defective Goods. This Returns Right is different and separate from the Cancellation Rights below.
- This is a distance contract (as defined below) which has the cancellation rights (Cancellation Rights) set out below. These Cancellation Rights, however, do not apply, to a contract for the following goods (with no others) in the following circumstances:
- goods that are made to your specifications or are clearly personalised;
- goods which are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly.

Right to cancel
- Subject as stated in these Terms and Conditions, you can cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
- The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire the Goods. In a contract for the supply of goods over time (ie subscriptions), the right to cancel will be 14 days after the first delivery.
- To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us of your decision to cancel this Contract by a clear statement setting out your decision (eg a letter sent by post, fax or email). You can use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. In any event, you must be able to show clear evidence of when the cancellation was made, so you may decide to use the model cancellation form.
- You can also electronically fill in and submit the model cancellation form or any other clear statement of the Customer’s decision to cancel the Contract on our website www.woodlandclassroom.com. If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation in a Durable Medium (eg by email) without delay.
- To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
Effects of cancellation in the cancellation period
- Except as set out below, if you cancel this Contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
Deduction for Goods supplied
- We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any Goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you (ie handling the Goods beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the Goods: eg it goes beyond the sort of handling that might be reasonably allowed in a shop). This is because you are liable for that loss and, if that deduction is not made, you must pay us the amount of that loss.
Timing of reimbursement
- If we have not offered to collect the Goods, we will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than:
- 14 days after the day we receive back from you any Goods supplied, or
- (if earlier) 14 days after the day you provide evidence that you have sent back the Goods.
- If we have offered to collect the Goods or if no Goods were supplied, we will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this Contract.
- We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.
Returning Goods
- If you have received Goods in connection with the Contract which you have cancelled, you must send back the Goods or hand them over to us at Woodland Classroom Ltd, 3 Central Court, High Street, Ffrith, Flintshire, LL11 5LH. without delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate to us your cancellation of this Contract. The deadline is met if you send back the Goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You agree that you will have to bear the cost of returning the Goods.
- For the purposes of these Cancellation Rights, these words have the following meanings:
- distance contract means a contract concluded between a trader and a consumer under an organised distance sales or service-provision scheme without the simultaneous physical presence of the trader and the consumer, with the exclusive use of one or more means of distance communication up to and including the time at which the contract is concluded;
- sales contract means a contract under which a trader transfers or agrees to transfer the ownership of goods to a consumer and the consumer pays or agrees to pay the price, including any contract that has both goods and services as its object.

- We have a legal duty to supply the Goods in conformity with the Contract, and will not have conformed if it does not meet the following obligation.
- Upon delivery, the Goods will:
- be of satisfactory quality;
- be reasonably fit for any particular purpose for which you buy the Goods which, before the Contract is made, you made known to us (unless you do not actually rely, or it is unreasonable for you to rely, on our skill and judgment) and be fit for any purpose held out by us or set out in the Contract; and
- conform to their description.
- It is not a failure to conform if the failure has its origin in your materials.

- In the event of any failure by a party because of something beyond its reasonable control:
- the party will advise the other party as soon as reasonably practicable; and
- the party’s obligations will be suspended so far as is reasonable, provided that that party will act reasonably, and the party will not be liable for any failure which it could not reasonably avoid, but this will not affect the Customer’s above rights relating to delivery and any right to cancel, below.
12. Excluding liability
- The Supplier does not exclude liability for: (i) any fraudulent act or omission; or (ii) for death or personal injury caused by negligence or breach of the Supplier’s other legal obligations. Subject to this, the Supplier is not liable for (i) loss which was not reasonably foreseeable to both parties at the time when the Contract was made, or (ii) loss (eg loss of profit) to the Customer’s business, trade, craft or profession which would not be suffered by a Consumer – because the Supplier believes the Customer is not buying the Goods wholly or mainly for its business, trade, craft or profession.

For clients who are booking Woodland Classroom staff or subcontractors to deliver work, here’s what you need to know…
Our Cancellation Policy: If the minimum number of participants has not been met within 2 weeks of the start date, events may be cancelled or rescheduled. If we have to cancel the event due to unforeseen circumstances or extreme weather (rain does not stop play, but high winds might) then we will offer clients the option of re-arranging the session(s) for an alternative date first before cancellation.
If, payment has been made in advance by the client, and the session(s) is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances outside of our control then the client will be eligible for a full refund.
Should you (the client) need to cancel a contract or part-contract, please contact us as soon as possible. All cancellations are subject to a 10% admin fee. Cancellations within 14 days of the session start date are chargeable in full unless special circumstances apply. We reserve the right to decide whether this applies.
Accepting Additional Participants: Where a session(s) are fully booked we can accept further participant names in case of a cancellation. Anyone wanting to attend the session(s) should contact us to join the waiting list.
Start times: Times listed are the actual time a session begins. Participants should arrive 15min before the stated time to get orientated and possibly fill in a registration form.

Special Dietary Requirements: As a rule our campfire food tends to be vegetarian. If we plan to cook meat, we will say inform you in advance. Clients do, of course, have the option to request a non-meat menu for food related activities. We try to cater for special dietary needs where we can, however when catering for large groups this is not always possible. If any participant has special dietary requirements then they should please contact us at least 1 week in advance of the session(s) and we can discuss the best way forward. Where we are unable to meet a clients requirements (and food is an inclusive part of the session) we may offer an appropriate discount on their ticket and ask them to bring a packed lunch. We reserve the right to decide whether this applies.
Working with Children & Young People – Age Restrictions: When offering bushcraft and forest school activities they are usually listed with a recommended target age group. These are recommended guidelines rather than hard rules with the aim of matching certain hazardous activities with the appropriate ability level of a child. If your client group falls outside the our recommended target age for an activity and you feel they would be able to fully engage in the activity then please contact us in advance to discuss their individual situation and experience. We will always try and be flexible and accommodating if we are able to. Unless stated otherwise, all bushcraft & woodland skills courses are suitable for participants aged 16+.
Woodland Classroom cannot host children under the age of 6 without an accompanying parent or guardian.
Payment Policy: Full payment must be received within 14 days from the date of our invoice. Preferred payment is via bacs, though payment via cheque is also accepted.
Should payment not be received within 14 days then a 2nd invoice with a payment deadline of 5 days will be issued to the client, after which further action will be taken if payment if not received.

GENERAL EVENT & COURSE INFORMATION
Start times: Times listed are the actual time the event begins. If this is the first time you and/or your child have attended an event with us, then please arrive 15min before the stated time to fill in a registration form.
Lunch/refreshments: Unless it is stated that lunch is included please bring a packed lunch. Tea, coffee or fruit squash is provided during breaks as appropriate.
Special Dietary Requirements: As a rule our campfire meals tend to be vegetarian. If we plan to cook meat, we will say so on the event page. We try to cater for special dietary needs where we can, however when catering for large groups of children this is not always possible. If you or your child has special dietary requirements then please do contact us in advance and we can discuss the best way forward. Where we are unable to meet your requirements (and food is an inclusive part of the event ticket) we may offer an appropriate discount on your ticket and ask you to bring a packed lunch. We reserve the right to decide whether this applies.
Age Restrictions: Each event is listed with a recommended target age group for the activities the event includes. These are recommended guidelines rather than hard rules so if your child falls outside the recommended target age for an event and you feel they would be able to and enjoy engaging in the event then please contact in advance of making a booking to discuss their individual situation and experience. We will always try and be flexible and accommodating if we are able to. Unless stated otherwise, all bushcraft & woodland skills courses are suitable for participants aged 16+. Woodland Classroom cannot host children under the age of 6 without an accompanying parent or guardian.
