Where applicable prices include VAT at 20% or the rate specified by the Inland Revenue at that time. These may vary directly with any changes in this rate prior to the commencement of your programme.

A Fuel Surcharge may require an additional payment, or in the case of Gift Vouchers, customers may prefer to take a reduced driving time option. Note. We have never (to date) had to make a surcharge. It is only in the case of sudden large increase in fuel cost or where Gift Vouchers or bookings having been extended or postponed that this may be a possibility.

There is an administration fee of £25 for these services. If the price of the activity has increased or there is a fuel or cost surcharge applicable since the original date of issue, there may also be a supplement to pay on extensions.
