News...
​

With regards to the situation presented to us by the COVID-19 / Coronavirus.
                
                We are very sad to announce that: 
                In line with government policy. All events up to the end of May are to be postponed, at present, we can not offer new dates as we are unsure when this will actually return to some normality and it may be that this period needs to be extended further.
                
                Any entries will be carried forward to the new dates as soon as we have them for 2020, if you have already entered you do not need to do anything further. If when we announce the new date you cannot make it or would prefer not to run the event on the new date, you are able to cancel your entry then for a 60% refund or another option is that you can also move your entry over to one of the other The Drop events.
                
                We want to provide all our participants with the best financial outcome we can, whilst still having the ability to continue events in the future. Like other events organisers, we are feeling quite frankly devastated at this moment in time, and have not taken any of these decisions lightly, we are more than aware of the potential issues and damage that this may cause for us and our events but we hope that you will rally around and support, not just us but all other events out there. We would like to treat everyone the same way, we hopefully have a clear policy in place now that we can all work with.

If you have any questions please contact us via either messenger (facebook) or email to our sister events team on hello@OrganicAdventure.co.uk the email etc is rather busy at the moment but we will get back to each and every email we receive, please just give us time!
