General
Fam trips are fact-finding educational trips, only for agents who wish to do serious business with the participating institutions. If you are selected to attend a fam trip, you agree to attend all functions on the trip itinerary and visit all participating institutions. Failure to do so may result in you being charged an additional fee.
Space is limited on the trips and only one representative per agency may attend a trip.
Allocation of a fam trip place is at the sole discretion of the participating institutions.
English UK and fam trip hosts reserve the right, at their sole discretion, to reject an application without assigning a reason.
The fam trip host will confirm with you what is included in the fam trip. Unless expressly stated fam trips do not include meals not detailed in the trip itinerary, tips, laundry, phone and internet access charges, optional excursions, insurance, mini-bar, alcohol, beverages, excess baggage and items of a purely personal nature.
Personal data
We are committed to protecting your privacy and your personal data. We want you to fully benefit from the events and activities we organise and be clear about how and why we process your personal data and endeavour to keep it safe. Your personal data will not be retained for longer than is necessary for the relevant purposes as set out in our Privacy Policy. You can ask us about your personal data at any time. You can also withdraw the consent to use your personal data at any time. Please be aware that a withdrawal of consent before the start of this event will incur a full event cancellation and cancellation fees as noted in these Terms and Conditions.
Media waiver
Fam trip hosts reserve the right to photograph and record the event. Participants may request for their image or video footage of them not to be used for future promotion of English UK and the UK English language teaching sector.
Itinerary changes
Fam trip hosts reserve the right to change the itinerary whenever local conditions render it advisable or necessary. Where those conditions are beyond their control fam trip hosts will not be responsible for any loss, expense or inconvenience caused because of the changes.
Transfer of bookings
We can transfer your fam trip booking to another eligible delegate within your organisation at any time up to five working days before the event. You must inform us of any transfer in writing.
Cancellation by you
If you wish to cancel your attendance on a fam trip, you must inform us in writing. If you cancel after your place has been confirmed, you may be charged a cancellation fee. You will be made aware of this before registering. If you transfer your attendance to a different fam trip, you may be charged the cancellation fee if a suitable replacement is not found to replace you on your original trip.
Dates & cancellation by organiser
In the event of a major disaster which prevents the fam trip from taking place on the dates previously notified, every effort will be made to reschedule the trip. If an alternative date is found English UK and the Fam trip hosts reserves the right to change the dates.
Only under exceptional circumstances, where the number of delegates is too low to make the fam trip viable or other unforeseen circumstances, will a fam trip need to be cancelled. In this case we will endeavour to provide at least four weeks’ notice.
In the above cases English UK, or the fam trip hosts, are not liable for any loss or consequential loss, for example, travel or hotel costs incurred due to changed arrangements.
