BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Our Social events are restricted to members only.

If you have any concerns about the suitability of an outing and/or need any special requirements please contact the Events Secretary so that we can advise you accordingly before you make a booking.

It is the responsibility of the individual person making a booking to advise us fully of any health, dietary or mobility issues so that we can assist your needs and confirm accessibility.

Members travel and attend at their own risk. The u3a Public Liability insurance cover does NOT cover members for personal accidents whilst taking part in a trip, unless the accident occurs due to the negligence of the U3A trip organiser, the venue or the transport company. You are encouraged to take out your own personal accident cover if you do not already have such cover.

Please note that individual seats on a coach cannot be reserved. The event organiser will have a reserved seat and allocate other reserved seats on occasions for the benefit of members who have a special requirement.

Members must accept the Events Organisers decision at all times otherwise they risk not having any future bookings accepted.

BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS

When booking to attend a Trip or Visit.

1. An Event Booking Form MUST be completed and all your details filled in as required by Beccles u3a. It is important that the form is fully completed as the form will be taken by the organiser on the relevant visit/trip. The detail may be required for accessibility needs or in the event of an emergency.
