Travelling expenses, accommodation costs (if required), and VAT are also charged
Events booked on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays may attract a 33% surcharge - we have families you know.
Fees may vary from those published for Events that encompass more than 1-day e.g. an afternoon on day 1 plus the morning of day 2. Please contact us for prices.

The difference in fees does not reflect a difference in quality. It is simply market forces in action with differing amounts charged as a result of factors such as availability, demand and experience.

Like at the hairdressers.

If you are a registered charity doing good work ask us about our special rates.

Expenses

These are charged to our clients with hotel accommodation, where it is necessary, kept to a minimum. It's scampi and chips at the Beefeater and an early night at the Holiday Inn for us, not the Ritz!

Travelling

These could include car travel which is charged at 45p per mile plus associated costs e.g. road tolls, car parking etc, and/or standard rate public transport ticket costs e.g. rail fare, flight cost*, taxi fare etc.

We will endeavour to provide an approximation of costs on request, however each Associate will determine their own mode of travel and actual costs will not be known until the journey is made.

*Business class is required for international travel.

Accommodation

Where this is needed we have a company policy of only using hotels for our Associates. They are often travelling late at night, so 24-hour check-in is required; they need time and space to be able to plan their Events; we have a duty of care to both themselves and our clients in respect of their health and welfare.

If you are holding your Event in a hotel please add our Associate to your rooming list.

If your Event is not in a hotel, then our Associate will make the necessary arrangements to stay in a reasonable standard of hotel nearby, for a reasonable cost using the following guidelines*:

£85 for a room
£10 for breakfast

*Market forces, location and time of year will determine the actual cost and copies of any receipts will be available on request.

Subsistence

This may also be claimed using the following guidelines*

£7.50 for lunch (including soft drinks)
£20 for evening meal (including soft drinks)

*Copies of any receipts will be available on request.

VAT

We also charge VAT (in accordance with HMRC legislation) at the standard rate although most organisations can claim that back so it doesn't count.
