Cancellation Policy

Birthlight needs written notice of cancellation (either by email or post) if you are unable to attend the course for any reason. To cover our administration costs, cancellation will be subject to the following charges which will be deducted before any refund of fees:

  • A refund (minus a 20% admin fee) will be made for cancellations made more than 28 days before the start date.
  • For cancellations less than 28 days before the course or workshop there will be no refunds or transfers unless:
        •    the course/ workshop is full and your place can be filled from a waiting list, or you introduce a new participant

        •    you are sick/injured/pregnant and can provide a doctor’s note


     In these cases we will refund the fee, minus a 20% admin fee.

We reserve the right to cancel a training or replace a tutor for any reason. We would only do this in exceptional circumstances that mean we are unable to offer the training as advertised, or if there are insufficient numbers booked to make it viable. Should this happen, we will notify you as soon as we have knowledge of the cancellation/change and will refund you the full training fee you have paid us in respect of the training in £ sterling.

We are unable to give refunds in the case of cancelled travel arrangements, accommodation or exchange rate losses. Please ensure you take out relevant insurance to protect yourself against this.

We will always consider special circumstances, which may be beyond your control, before implementing these charges. Any case will be considered on an individual basis at the full discretion of Birthlight.
