All bookings will be acknowledged and confirmed by e-mail unless a postal reply is requested.  The room will be set-up in accordance with the agreed room layout on the booking form.  Please allow time for setting up and clearing away when booking the room.

 

All start and finish times must be strictly adhered to.   If this is not observed, you may be asked to vacate the room or pay an additional fee.

 

These terms and conditions will apply to any future lettings until, and if, varied when notification in writing will be given.

For cancellations made 7 days or less prior to the function date, 100% of the room hire fee will be charged.

 

For cancellations 8 to 14 days prior to the function date, 50% of the room hire fee will be charged.

 

DAR reserves the right to cancel:

 

(a)  any contractual booking due to reasons beyond our control.  In these circumstances a full refund will be given if payment has already been made.

 

(b)  any provisional booking in the event of non-confirmation in writing within 7 days of the provisional booking being made.

 

Payment

 

An invoice will be issued to you and payment should be made within 30 days of receipt of the invoice.  Cheques should be made payable to Dial A Ride (Scarborough & District) and addressed to Dial A Ride, Unit 4, 64-66 Londesborough Road, Scarborough, North Yorkshire YO12 5AF.

 

Refreshments

 

Tea, coffee and biscuits can be provided for self service, please enter participant numbers on the booking form (price as per booking form).

 

Should you wish to order food for your events, you will be expected to make your own arrangements for ordering and delivery.  If required we can suggest some local suppliers.  Alternatively, there are several sandwich shops and small cafes located on Falsgrave Road which are readily accessible during breaks to purchase lunch.

 

The use of the kitchen adjoining the meeting room is included, as is crockery, cutlery and washing up facilities, although other users of the building may need to use the kitchen at the same time.  If you need to dispose of food or a large amount of rubbish, please use the green or blue bins located at the back of the building outside the DAR staff tearoom.  Please ensure all food is bagged and recycled items placed in the blue bin.

 

Domestic Arrangements and Additional Charges

 

All users of the meeting room area will be asked to leave the room in the same condition they found it in.  In the event of excessive cleaning or deliberate/unreasonable damage, additional charges will be made to cover the cost of cleaning or replacing the goods or property.  Please ensure all crockery and cutlery used is washed, dried and put away.

 

Interactive Whiteboard

 

ONLY THE SPECIAL COLOURED PENS AND ERASER LOCATED BENEATH THE WHITEBOARD CAN BE USED FOR WRITING ON IT.  UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST STANDARD MARKER PENS BE USED AS THESE LEAVE AN INDELIBLE MARK ON THE SURFACE.  ANY DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT WILL BE CHARGEABLE.

 

Insurance

 

It is the responsibility of the hirer to ensure that they have the necessary insurance in respect of any matters for which they may be liable in respect of the event for which they are hiring the room.  DAR insurance only covers events held by DAR.

 

DAR is not able to accept any responsibility for loss of or damage to property owned by or in possession of the client whilst that property is at DAR premises.  Nor are we responsible for any liability arising out of the use of said property.  The hirer is advised to arrange appropriate insurance cover at all times.

 

Licences

 

DAR does not hold a premises licence for the consumption of intoxicating liquor or the performance of copyright music and, therefore, it is the responsibility of the hirer to hold their own licences.  If not complied with, hirers will be invoiced for the cost of any penalty levied against DAR.

 

Personal Possessions

 

Dial A Ride is unable to accept responsibility for any personal possessions brought into or left on the premises.

 

Walls

 

The walls are unsuitable for sticking items on and, therefore, the use of sellotape, blu-tack or drawing pins is strictly forbidden.  Any such activity must be confined to the gloss painted doors in the room and then only blu-tack (NOT PINS OR SELLOTAPE) can be used – any damage caused will be invoiced.

 

Prohibitions

 

Smoking anywhere within the building

 

Any process generating flames, smoke or dust or flammable substances

 

Dogs, with the exception of guide dogs

The main contact for your room booking will be issued with key health and safety information such as our fire evacuation procedures, domestic arrangements, toilets, signing in procedures etc.  The main contact will be responsible for communicating this information to attendees.

 

No exits shall be blocked at any time.

 

No additional electrical equipment shall be used unless with the prior consent of DAR and such equipment must be PAT tested with appropriate labelling.
