General Guidelines for Church Tours |
1) Tours are run for the benefit of members of the Church
Monuments Society
and supporters of the Historic Churches Preservation Trust but are open (unless otherwise stated) to all to
participate in. 2) As each event has to pay its way, insufficient numbers
may lead to the cancellation of a particular event. Unless otherwise stated
refunds will be made in full where this happens. 3) Whilst Risk Assessments are carried out on Church
Tours and each organisation carries Public Liability Insurance, all day trips
are at participants' own risk. Inclusive tours include a charge for insurance
which has been a legal obligation for such events since 1st January
2005. 4) In the event of any query that the Organiser (Robin
Millerchip) cannot provide an answer for, then reference should be made to either: ·
The Chief
Executiver, H.C.P.T.,
31 Newbury Street, London EC1A 7HU · Dr Phillip G Lindley , Dept. of History of Art & Film, University of Leicester, University Road, Leicester LE1 7RH 5) Unless otherwise clearly stated all tours are by coach
from and returning to the advertised pick up point, and the coach fare and main
meal costs are usually included in all prices. 6) Unforeseen events do occur from time to time, and
consequently, tour itineraries may be altered at the last minute if required to
enable the event to be completed in a reasonable way. 7) Whilst there are few set deadlines, it makes for more
effective use of your money if bookings can be made no later than two weeks
before the event for day tours, one month for inclusive tours. 8) All cancellations are treated sympathetically, but
please submit (in writing preferably) ASAP. 9) If there are any general queries about the programme or individual tours please do not
hesitate to contact the Hon Tour Secretary, Robin Millerchip, 10 Newton Villas,
Coxhoe, Durham DH6 4JF, who can be phoned at reasonable hours on 0191 377 0521
or can be contacted by email at r.millerchip@btopenworld.com Church Tours have retained
the same Objectives for over twenty years: · To provide those without
private transport a chance to visit otherwise impossible to visit places of
interest ·
To assist with raising
money for both organisations and for individual churches |
