Payments

For our long retreats, only the deposit will be collected via Eventbrite. The remaining fee will be invoiced for payment by direct debit. This avoids you paying a hefty credit card surcharge. If you would still like to pay by credit card, please notify accounts on receipt of the invoice, and this option will be made available to you.

Refund policy

Our refund policy for the retreat is to allow refunds up to 30 days before the retreat. We appreciate that unexpected events can happen, so we will attempt to give you a partial refund, should something happen after that date that prevents you from coming to the retreat. The fixed cost component of the retreat is about 30% of the total cost. This portion will not be refunded. The amount of any refund will depend on actual costs and will be at our discretion.
