If for any reason your circumstances change and you can no longer join us\, please cancel your slot on EventBrite [this is a single click through your ticket confirmation email] with as much notice as possible and we can give your space to someone else. The size of the groups are extremely limited and although free to you [woohoo!] they come with cost and planning on our part and we love to see all places being enjoyed to their full potential. Thank you.
