Event, Training and Group Booking Terms and Conditions

Hereafter; the term Event will mean event, training or group.

Booking does not automatically constitute confirmation of a place. BAATN will confirm all bookings by email or in writing on receipt of a completed booking and payment in full.

For BAATN gatherings:

Most BAATN gatherings are free for members and can be booked any time up until the day before the event. Bookings for non-members can be made at any time except a week ahead of the event. For non-members booking reservations without payment will be held for 1 week before being offered to another person. Without payment in full places cannot be guaranteed. All bookings are made on a first-come, first-served basis.

For trainings/conferences and closed groups:

Bookings for trainings, conferences and closed groups can be made any time up until the day before the event. Full payment would need to be made to guarantee a place. If payment has not been made a week before the event the place will be offered to another person.

Limitation of liability

BAATN does not accept responsibility for accident, injury or loss suffered while attending events unless it is directly due to negligence on its part.

BAATN reserves the right to amend or cancel any event dates. In the unlikely occurrence of a event cancellation, BAATN will return any payments received in advance. BAATN will not, however, refund any costs incurred as a result of this cancellation.

BAATN Event Refund Policy

There will be no penalty for cancellations received on or before the date 30 days prior to the first day of an event. The full amount paid minus a £2-£4 (depending on the event) processing fee will be refunded. A cancellation fee of 50% of registration costs plus the processing fee will be applied for cancellations received between 29 to 10 days before an event. No refund will be issued for cancellations received less than 10 days before the first day of an event.

Late requests for refunds due to a family emergency only will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Deposits are non-refundable.

All cancellation requests made less than 10 days before the first day of an event must be sent in writing via e-mail, stating the reason for the cancellation. events@baatn.org.uk or post to BAATN 11216, PO Box 6945, London, W1A 6US. Confirmation of the request will be within two days.
