Minor changes to an event, such as a change to the start time, duration, walk itinerary, etc. If we need to make minor changes to the event we will advise you of these changes at the earliest possible date. Minor changes will not constitute a reason for cancellation.
 If a major change becomes necessary, we will notify you as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before the start of the event. A major change would be a change to the event date(s) and/or location/destination. When a major change or cancellation occurs you will have the choice of accepting the change of arrangements, purchasing another event from us, or cancelling your event. 
Should you choose to cancel, we will refund all recoverable payments made directly to us in respect of the event. We will not however, be in a position to refund any personnel expenses you may have incurred as a result of your booking such as travel expenses, equipment purchase, travel insurance, vaccinations etc.

Accommodation:
Accommodation is usually provided in twin or double rooms, or multi occupancy dormitories. Where ever possible we will try to accommodate your preference of room type.
 Our standard booking policy for dormitories is mixed sex occupancy. Whenever possible we will seek to accommodate clients’ preferences for single sexed dorms.

Liability/Insurance:
LargeOutdoors recommends that all clients carry adequate insurance to cover the duration of any event and activities undertaken. The insurance should cover cancellation and curtailment, medical and emergency expenses (including repatriation), personal accident, injury and death. In the event of an emergency medical rescue and/or repatriation from an event by whatever means, the responsibility of such costs must be bourn by the client.
If the walks and/or the weekend activities have to be cancelled, interrupted, or curtailed due to circumstances beyond LargeOutdoors control, LargeOutdoors shall not be liable to make good any loss incurred.
The Client is liable for any loss or damages occasioned to the accommodation or any equipment therein as a result of their negligence.
