​
Parties will go ahead if it is raining or snowing, however if thunderstorms or high winds are forecast, for everyone’s safety the party will be cancelled and you will be offered an alternative date, as soon as we have availability. We cancel sessions very rarely and only when it is too dangerous to be in the woods – a little bit of rain won’t put us off!
