The material displayed on our site is provided in good faith and without any guarantees, conditions or warranties as to its accuracy. To the greatest extent permitted by law, we and third parties connected to us hereby expressly exclude: 

  • All conditions, warranties and other terms which might otherwise be implied by statute, common law or the law of equity.

This does not affect our liability for death or personal injury arising from our negligence, nor our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or misrepresentation as to a fundamental matter, nor any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. 

Equality and diversity

We recognise our obligations under the Equality Act 2010 and are committed to promoting the equality and diversity of all those we work with. We oppose all forms of discrimination, bullying and harassment and will make every effort to comply with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 and its subsequent provisions. We are committed to promoting a positive and diverse culture in which every person is valued and supported to fulfil their potential irrespective of their age, disability, race, religion, belief, gender or sexual orientation. 

Cancellations

All bookings that are to be delivered within 60 calendar days from the date of contract will require payment in full at point of booking. For services, events or activities that are beyond 60 calendar days, a non-refundable deposit of 50% will be required to secure the booking.

For conferences, workshops, performance management/appraisal and whole-day facilitation/training etc., if you cancel within 60 calendar days of the event there will be no further charges, other than loss of the non-refundable deposit, or the amount in full if the above paragraph applies. If you cancel within days 59 - 29, then you will be invoiced for a further 25% of the total fee. For cancelations from day 28 to zero, payment will be required in full. 

For coaching/mentoring, if either side needs to reschedule the occasional session, then this can be arranged within the contract window, so long as this is reasonable and kept to a minimum (e.g. Ofsted, illness, family emergencies etc.). If you cancel (or fail to attend), it is your responsibility to rearrange a replacement. If you fail to do so, or a suitable date cannot be arranged within the engagement period, the session will be forfeited. If we cancel, then we will endeavour to offer an alternative session. We reserve the right to use our discretion over all such matters and exercise final judgement.
