Use of this website is subject to the following terms:

Refunds Policy - Event Purchases

Where someone has purchased a place at an event organised by BRACE, we offer a full refund if the event is cancelled by BRACE and usually (if stated on the booking page) in the case of cancellation by the customer at least one month in advance of the event. Example: BRACE Conference.

If a supporter has paid a third party to attend their event in order to raise funds for BRACE, we are unable to offer a refund. In these circumstances, we have not received the admission/registration fee and the contract is between the customer and the third-party organisation. Example: challenge events.

Refund Policy - Donations

Charities are expected to refuse to refund donations other than in exceptional circumstances.

If someone has sponsored a participant in a challenge event, and that event is subsequently cancelled, the circumstances do not warrant a refund. The donor has donated in good faith to the charity because of the fundraiser’s intention to participate in the event.

Although the coronavirus crisis itself is exceptional, it is not unusual for events to be cancelled for other reasons such as adverse weather conditions, or for fundraisers to withdraw because of injury. the intention of the donor to support the cause of the charity and support the (intentions of) the fundraiser will have been honoured.

Refunds will be given at the discretion of management and may need to be referred to the charity commission.

Refund Policy - Online Shop

The services provided by our carrier are outside our control. While we cannot guarantee delivery dates or times, UK delivery is normally no more than 1-2 working days after despatch. In the event of a delayed delivery, we regret we are unable to offer compensation. Should you not receive your goods within 8 days, a refund or replacement will be offered.

We package our products extremely carefully - in the unlikely event that they are damaged in transit or faulty, you can notify us via telephone or email. You must then return the goods unused and in their original condition within the next 5 working days.

If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may cancel your order within 7 days of receipt of the goods and request a full refund or replacement. However, as per standard industry practice, we cannot accept returns of customised items or special orders (that is, items that are marked as being ones we never hold in stock and have to place special orders for). Also return transport is a customer’s expense.

You must notify us within 7 days of receiving your goods via telephone or email if you wish to make a return. You must then return the goods unused and in their original condition within the next 5 working days. It is your responsibility to insure the goods with the carrier you use to return them as we are unable to process a refund until we receive the returned goods, and we cannot accept any liability for goods we do not receive.

We will either replace or process a refund upon receipt of the goods within 7 working days, according to your requirements. We regret we cannot control how long it takes your card issuer to credit your account. If the goods you received were substitute goods, damaged in any way or are of unsatisfactory quality, we will also compensate you for the cost of return postage. If the package or goods are damaged, please report this to our carrier upon delivery or as soon as possible thereafter.

Our online payments are handled by Go Cardless, Stripe and PayPal.
