Workshops
All workshops are offered subject to availability and will only be reserved after full payment has been received. Dates for private workshop bookings will be secured by a non-refundable deposit with balance to be paid 14 days before the event.
​
Online and Face to Face workshop sessions are in groups, therefore the session length is a guide and may be subject to change. Amendments to content could also be made at our discretion.
​
Bookings are not confirmed or finalised until you have received a confirmation email. You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase information, including email address so we can contact you with the information.
​
Online Workshops are designed for children from 5yrs+ but must be accompanied by an adult at all times. You will need a computer and good wifi connection for online workshops. You are required to arrive 5 mins before the session start time so everyone is admitted and ready to go on time. You agree not to share any unlawful or abusive material or transmit any viruses or any code of a destructive nature.
​
Face to face workshops are designed for children from 7yrs+ and usually take place at The Choc Spot Kitchen, St Albans although not exclusively. Please check venue stated for the workshop selected. Full address details for The Choc Spot Kitchen will be given in the confirmation email. Please try to arrive 5-10mins before the start of a workshop.
​
All customers attending face to face workshops are responsible for their own belongings and we accept no liability for any loss or damage.
​
​
Changes to bookings
If necessary workshop dates can be changed, but we cannot guarantee space for the same workshop. Alternatively you could select someone else to attend in your place. We are unable to offer refunds if you choose to cancel a booking within 7 days of the session.
​
We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule workshop dates. All attendees will be notified as soon as possible and will be able to transfer to another workshop or receive a full refund if you need to cancel under these circumstances.
Unfortunately, we are not liable and are unable to reimburse any expenses you may have incurred in relation to a cancelled event in these circumstances.
Payment
No payments shall be deemed to have been received until funds have been cleared. Your place on a workshop shall only be reserved after full payment has been received.
​
All transactions are processed through Wix, a secure payment site. All transactions are encrypted and your credit and debit card details are never passed onto us or any third party.
​
