To be held at your school or venue.
The space must be of reasonable size (approx. 10m x 10m), be warm and have a suitable floor for exercise (i.e. sprung or wooden floor, NOT carpet or concrete). Please ensure that the floor has been swept and that there are no hazards in the space.

(+ travel expenses + accommodation and/or subsistence + non-facilitation fee where needed + VAT)
An additional £60 fee will be incured for travel that exceeds 4 hours each way to cover Practitioners' time.
As a VAT registered company, we have to apply VAT for recharges that we invoice for. Even though there is no VAT on travel itself, as we are recharging you for it, we have been advised by both the Inland Revenue and our accountant that we must charge VAT on travel reimbursements.
Should you have any queries about this, information about this is detailed in on the HMRC website here:
