Refunds
Fourteen-day cooling off period
A fourteen-day cooling off period applies to all bookings made by individuals more than two weeks before the course start date. If you cancel your booking within the fourteen days and have not accessed the paid course content you will be entitled to a full refund of your fee (as per Consumer Protection Regulations). For bookings made via the website, the first day is the day on which the booking form is submitted and your payment is taken.
If you have already accessed some of the course content and change your mind within the fourteen-day period you may be entitled to a proportionate refund, taking into account our admin time and the amount of course content you have used. Your right to cancel during the fourteen-day period will be lost if you access the whole of the workshop content during this time.
For live workshops, if you make a booking on a date less than fourteen days before the start date of the course your right to cancel ceases on day you first access the paid course content.
Other cancellation by student
No refunds of course fees can be made under any other circumstances outside this fourteen-day period or once you have accessed the course content (with exception of the free content).
No reductions or refunds are available for people who wish to start their online live workshop late or leave early.
Transfer of booking
Workshop fees do not include cancellation insurance. We recommend that you take out insurance in case you need to cancel your workshop due to unforeseen circumstances. Our refund policy applies in all circumstances: refunds will not be given unless InStitches cancels the workshop, or you are within the fourteen-day cooling off period (see above).

Technical requirements
It is your responsibility to provide equipment to enable you take part in your online or live workshop. We recommend the following for optimum enjoyment:
- a computer/laptop, tablet or phone with an up-to-date browser. For optimum experience we recommend watching the videos on a larger screen than a phone so you can see details of what we’re doing.
- an adequate and reliable internet connection sufficient to join this type of session which involves streamed video.
- As there are downloadable pdfs with the workshops, we recommend you have access to a printer, but this is not essential.
- You must satisfy yourself as to the security of files before downloading any content.
- As when using any internet service, we recommend that you protect your computer with up-to-date antivirus software.

We have made these workshops for you, our students, not anyone else, and the information you have bought is made available for you and you alone.
We understand that it’s great to be creative in the company of others but if you and a friend came to a studio workshop you would both have to pay for a place, so please do the same with these online and online live workshops.

Projects, instructions and patterns provided are for personal use and can be used to make items for gifting but you cannot use them to produce items for commercial sale.
