Wrekin Forest School bookings require a payment of 50% before a booking is considered firm, this is considered as a non-refundable but transferable deposit. Full payment must be made a minimum of four days prior to the booked event. Cancellation of a party when done by the client within 48 hours of the scheduled party this will mean a loss of the whole payment and is not transferable.
In the case of forest school parties numbers should be advised upon booking and must be confirmed a minimum of 48 hours prior to the booked event. If there is an increase in the numbers attending on the day then this must be agreed with ourselves prior to the party due to staffing purposes and any additional costs will be immediately payable. We would ask that you give us as much notice if your party is to exceed 18 for staffing purposes, with the exception of the Tinies party as that must not exceed 14. If party numbers fall below the confirmed number of attendees, a reduction in price cannot be made due to pre-booked staff levels.
Celebrations on the field or events site is maintained to the highest standard and it is expected that it will be maintained by users to this high standard. We do everything in our power to keep the site safe, but can not guarantee that every tree remains intact despite regular checks. Guests must be kept within the agreed numbers for the chosen package. We prefer you to use our trusted suppliers on our site, there is a small charge for providers not listed with us. Other suppliers used on our site must be listed and insurance documents must be submitted to us a minimum of four weeks prior to event date. We anticipate we may need to meet suppliers onsite for deliveries, but if these providers are not our own we charge for those journey made as a direct need to take delivery of items directly relating to your event…eg the generator or toilets not supplied through our providers. For each provider used that is not one of our recommended supplier we charge £50, this is to cover required communication with the supplier and the need to clear rubbish from providers post event.
