- Health commitment statement
Your health is your responsibility. The Organiser is dedicated to helping you take every opportunity to enjoy your attendance at our events. With this in mind, we have carefully considered what we can reasonably expect of each other.
Our commitment to you
We will make every reasonable effort to make sure our events are organised to accepted safe operational standards for you to enjoy.
We will make all reasonable steps to ensure first aid is available at event to an industry standard.
If you tell us you have a disability which puts you at a substantial disadvantage in accessing our event, we will consider what adjustments, if any, are reasonable for us to make.
Your commitment to us
If you know or are concerned that you have a medical condition which might interfere with your safe attendance at our event, before you attend you should seek advice from a relevant medical professional and follow that advice.
It is the decision of the Ticketholder, not the event organiser, to determine whether he or she is fit enough to attend. If the Ticketholder is in any doubt, the Ticketholder should seek medical advice. It is up to the user where to seek that medical advice.
You should let us know immediately, if you feel unwell whilst attending the event. Our staff are not qualified doctors, but there will be first aid provision in attendance at the event.
If you have a disability, you must follow any reasonable instructions to allow you to attend our event safely.
This Health Commitment Statement sets the standards that the Event Organiser and the event Ticketholder can reasonably expect from each other in regard to the health of the Ticketholder.
This statement is for guidance only. It is not a legally binding agreement between you and us and does not create any obligation which you or we must meet.
If you have any questions about our terms and conditions, please get in contact with info@wreuro23.com.
- Merchandise Returns Policy
All refunds and exchanges are to be processed directly by the Organiser. If you require a refund and are entitled to one you must contact the Organiser directly by contacting info@wreuro23.com.
All additional purchases made at the point of Event attendance are subject to each individual supplier’s refund and exchange policies (you must read the supplier’s terms and conditions to establish and understand what these are in each case). Please contact your supplier for specific details.
Details of all merchandise suppliers can be found by emailing info@wreuro23.com
Items of merchandise or additional purchases supplied by the Organiser (as opposed to a third-party supplier) can only be exchanged or refunded if they are defective, not as described, or arrive damaged and are received back with the Organiser within 35 days of purchase in its original condition.
By original condition, we’d expect this to mean that you’ve kept packaging and labels, and that the item is undamaged and unused.
Once returned, we’ll refund the person who originally placed and paid for the order. Where a product has been made to measure or personalised for you, unless faulty, we're unable to refund or offer an exchange.
If you need to return an item, you are responsible for paying your own shipping costs. The Organiser will deduct the cost of shipping a replacement item from your refund.
This does not affect your statutory rights.
