Holiday Club Terms and Conditions

Thank you for choosing Wild Embers. By making a booking and paying for a Wild Adventurers session, you agree to the following Terms & Conditions.

Booking Requests and Confirmation

  • Submitting a booking request and payment does not automatically guarantee a place.

  • All bookings are subject to review and acceptance by Wild Embers. A booking will only be considered confirmed once you have received confirmation from a member of the Wild Embers team.

  • Wild Embers reserves the right to decline a booking where we believe we are unable to safely meet a child's needs within the staffing ratios, resources and support available for the programme. In such circumstances, any payment received will be refunded in full.

  • By submitting a booking request, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

Consent Forms

  • A completed consent form must be submitted before your child can attend any Wild Embers session. We reserve the right to refuse attendance until all required information has been received.

  • It is the responsibility of the parent/carer to ensure all information provided is accurate and up to date, including emergency contact details and medical information.

Changes to Booked Dates

  • Once a session has been booked and paid for, any requested change of date is subject to availability and may incur a 10% administration fee.

  • Wild Embers is under no obligation to transfer bookings where spaces are unavailable.

Cancellation Policy

  • If you cancel a booking more than 7 days before the session date, a refund may be issued at the discretion of Wild Embers.

  • Cancellations made within 7 days of the session date are non-refundable.

  • Exceptions may be considered in cases of illness, injury, family emergency or other exceptional circumstances. Supporting evidence may be requested.

Arrival and Departure

  • Children should arrive promptly for the start of the session and no earlier than 10 minutes before the advertised start time.

  • Parents/carers must collect children promptly at the end of the session.

  • If you are delayed, please contact a member of the Wild Embers team as soon as possible.

  • Wild Embers reserves the right to charge an additional fee for persistent or significant late collections.

Clothing and Equipment

  • Wild Embers sessions take place outdoors in all reasonable weather conditions.

  • Parents/carers are responsible for ensuring children arrive with suitable clothing, footwear, food, drinks and any other items listed in the "What to Bring" guidance provided before the session.

  • Children who arrive without appropriate clothing or equipment may be unable to participate in certain activities.

Health and Wellbeing

  • Children must not attend sessions if they are unwell with a contagious illness. We have a strict 48hr D&V policy.

  • If a child becomes unwell during a session, parents/carers may be contacted and asked to collect them.

  • Any medication required during the session must be clearly identified and discussed with the Wild Embers team in advance.

Behaviour and Safety

  • Wild Embers aims to provide a safe, welcoming and enjoyable environment for all participants.

  • Children are expected to behave respectfully towards staff, other children, equipment, wildlife and the environment.

  • Where a child's behaviour presents a significant risk to themselves, other participants or staff, Wild Embers reserves the right to contact parents/carers and, where necessary, requires the child to be collected early.

Suitability of Provision

  • Wild Adventurers is a group-based outdoor holiday programme operating with a ratio of up to 15 children to 3 practitioners.

  • Parents/carers are responsible for providing accurate and complete information about their child's needs, medical conditions, support requirements and behaviours that may impact their participation.

  • Wild Embers carefully reviews all booking requests to ensure we can provide a safe and positive experience for all children attending.

  • Where we believe that a child's needs cannot be safely or appropriately met within the staffing ratios and support available for the programme, we reserve the right to decline or cancel a booking.

  • Where possible, this decision will be discussed with the parent/carer before a final decision is made. If Wild Embers declines a booking before attendance begins, any fees paid will be refunded in full.

Cancellation by Wild Embers

  • In exceptional circumstances, Wild Embers may need to cancel a session due to severe weather, staff illness, insufficient bookings, safety concerns or circumstances beyond our control.

  • Where this occurs, families will be offered either an alternative date or a full refund.

Photography and Media

  • Photographs and videos will only be taken and used in accordance with the permissions provided on your consent form.
