Essential
Information
Booking: Some events must be booked and paid for in advance. For all others, booking is not essential but it is highly recommended to guarantee your place. Your safety and enjoyment are very important to us and we therefore have to adhere to guidelines on group numbers. Unfortunately this means that we might have to turn people away but we ask that you respect the decision of the event leader. Payment is required at the time of booking and
can be made by debit/credit card over the phone. If this
is not possible cheque or cash is acceptable (please do not
send cash through the post). Cheques should be made payable to
'Harrogate Borough Council'. Bookings will not be confirmed until
payment is received.
Please note that bookings are
non-refundable unless the event is cancelled by the
AONB.
Payment: Cancellation of Events: Great care has been
taken to organise these events but sometimes circumstances beyond
our control, such as bad weather or leader illness, may lead to a
cancellation. Every effort will be made to contact people that have
booked but for all events we recommend that you contact us to check
it is still going ahead. We reserve the right to postpone or cancel
any events.
Clothing & Equipment: It is
essential that you come dressed/equipped accordingly for the event
and the weather conditions. The weather can be very different on
higher ground so please come prepared. Event leaders can only
accept participants who are prepared for the conditions. Always
bring:
Meeting Point: Please ensure that
you know where the meeting point is. Some events are in remote
locations but directions are available from the AONB office on
request.
Food & Drink: If a packed
lunch is required this will be stated in the event details but you
may want to bring a drink and snack to all events.
Children are welcome on all
events, unless otherwise stated, but under 16's must be accompanied
by an adult.
Dogs are not allowed unless
stated. When dogs are allowed they must be well behaved, kept on a
short lead at all times and be fit enough for stiles and the
terrain.
Toilets: Many events are in
remote locations with no toilet facilities.
Transport: The AONB supports
sustainable modes of transport and some of our events are
accessible by public transport entry is free for those with a valid
ticket.
