Please note if a lesson is cancelled by CADAC then the club will organise another lesson to replace it. If you fail to turn up for a lesson then you will not be entitled to another lesson to replace it. Please note that lessons will take place even if there is light rain or showers so bring a light waterproof with you in the event that it rains. We will only cancel the lesson if the rain is heavy and persistent or there is a chance of lightning or there are high winds. This will be at CADAC's discretion and is non negotiable. If you are unsure and can not contact us prior to the lesson then turn up anyway as someone will be there to inform you of the rescheduled lesson date if the lesson is cancelled.
