Costs

The page offers guidelines on prices.
These are guidelines only and the cost of every activity will be agreed when you book with us, depending on numbers, length of session and the number of staff required etc.
From time to time, we are able to secure funding from trusts and charities for particular programmes, which may reduce costs for certain purposes e.g. work with people with disabilities, work with schools, particular topics.
If cost alone is the issue preventing your booking with us, please talk to us about whether we can offer any assistance.
