Cancellation Policy

3. If Cavell Nurses’ Trust or the event provider cancels the event:

The Abseil Challenge 2023 may be cancelled in the following circumstances:

• Adverse weather conditions which makes the challenge unsafe for participants
• Government and local restrictions on events of this kind. i.e. COVID restrictions

In the unlikely event of cancellation, we will work hard to find a new date for the event as soon as possible. This will be dependent on numerous factors, but we would hope to have a new date soon after cancelling the initial event.

If you accept the deferred entry within 1 week of being notified, you will be guaranteed a place at the new event on the alternative date and your registration fee will be transferred. Your fundraising page will remain with funds raised being transferred to the new date. Unfortunately, if you cannot make this rescheduled date your registration fee becomes non-refundable, and we will treat this as a donation towards Cavell’s work.

If a new date cannot be found, you will be offered a full refund minus any processing fees, or you can choose to donate your fee to Cavell’s work.

4. Cancellation by the participant:

If the participant is unable to participate in the event the participant will inform the Fundraising Team at Cavell Nurses’ Trust as soon as possible by emailing fundraising@cavellnursestrust.org or calling 01527 595999

In the event Cavell Nurses’ Trust is able to fill this place with another challenger, we can offer you a full refund of your registration fee (minus any processing fees). Any sponsorship money already collected is subject to clause 6 and 7.

5. Expenses
5.1 In the instance of a cancellation, Cavell Nurses’ Trust will not be able to refund any expenses that you may have incurred such as pre-booked travel or accommodation, so please carefully check the cancellation policies of the services that you have booked or are about to book.
