Summer Camp Terms and Conditions — The Centre For The Arts and Global Leadership

Upon reserving a place on the ‘Leading the Future’ summer camps, the payment will be required in full. If you wish to discuss a payment plan or you wish to pay by bank transfer please contact us. A registration form must also be completed at the time of booking. A booking is only confirmed once the payment is received and at this point your acceptance on to our summer camp is confirmed.
All payments are to be made in Euros, net of any bank charges and other charges, including exchange rate variations.
Once payment is made, it is implied that the terms and conditions of the summer camps are accepted by the participant.
CAGL will require a copy of each participant’s passport (and visa details if required to enter France) either prior to arriving in France or upon arrival at Clos de Gaye.

CAGL reserves the right to cancel the ‘Leading the Future’ summer camps due to Force Majeure (this means unforeseen circumstances out of CAGL’s control). Examples include, but are not limited to, governmental imposed restrictions, pandemics, state of emergency, war/terrorist attacks etc. Such events shall be considered a Force Majeure to the extent that they prevent CAGL of undertaking their obligations. If, in the very rare case this happens, no refund will be made by CAGL, but we will offer new summer camp dates to the participant.
CAGL reserves the right to cancel any summer camp for any other reason. In the highly unlikely event of a summer camp being cancelled by CAGL, the participant will be offered the choice of an alternative date or a full refund. CAGL’s liability will be for the fee paid by the participant to attend the summer camp. CAGL will not accept liability for any additional costs incurred by the participant as a result of such a cancellation.
It is strongly advised that participants take out Cancellation and Repatriation insurance to cover such events.

Participants must inform CAGL in writing if they wish to cancel their place on our summer camps. CAGL will make every effort to offer alternative dates to the participant subject to availability. Cancellation is only accepted once the participant receives a written reply from CAGL. No refunds will be made after payment has been received by CAGL.
