We are unable to offer any refunds or course transfer should you decide to cancel or are unable to attend your course for any reason. If you feel your circumstances may change it is advised to look into purchasing ticket Insurance. It is the attendee’s responsibility to source a company that provides this service. Alternatively, you are welcome to send someone else in your place.

5. Infectious Illness & Covid-19

If you have an infectious illness, test positive for Covid-19 or are instructed to self-isolate after encountering someone with Covid-19 by the NHS Test and Trace App’ within 48 hours before of the class you must notify us to safeguard the well-being of others.  You will be unable to attend the class under such circumstances. Please provide us with proof of your illness or instruction to self-isolate within 24 hours (NHS Test & Trace email or Doctors Note) and we will defer your booking to a later date. Failure to provide this proof will result in cancellation of your booking. In the unlikely event we need to reschedule or postpone a class for you for any reason, you will be offered alternative dates.  Classes will not be refunded. In such an event, we will not be liable for the cost of travel expenses, pre-booked accommodation costs or any other indirect costs incurred by you.

6. Allergy, food intolerance and dietary requirements   

You must inform us of any allergy or food intolerance, and any dietary requirements Within 24 hours of your booking being confirmed.  If you do not, we cannot guarantee that the ingredients will be available, or the recipes adapted to meet your requirements.  If you have not informed us of an allergy or food intolerance and you suffer an allergic reaction, we are not liable.
 

7. Human Types

During classes we will create different Human Types. It is universally accepted that people from different parts of the World do have different features and it is important therefore to represent these differences in our art. The classes will focus on the typical features of people from Africa, Asia, and Europe. Obviously, these features are not applicable to everyone from those areas of the World, but for the purpose of teaching the differences between human types we will be using them.  The art that we are learning is caricature in nature and we will therefore accentuate some of the features to achieve the caricature effect. In addition to models of different Human Types we will also be creating models of different genders. Again, the different features we create between genders will be generic and accentuated to produce the caricature models. The use of these generic features and the accentuation of them is a key part of the classes and is not intended to offend in any way but rather celebrate the wonderful individuality of every person. We are of class happy to discuss our designs with you prior to booking so please get in touch but if you feel these classes may offend you, please do not book or if booked already please cancel with the 14 days of purchase as per clause 11 below. Please note that we cannot provide a refund or be held liable for any costs if you choose not to continue with your class due feeling uncomfortable with this element of our teaching.
