Terms & Conditions

1. Booking Arrangements. In order to avoid disappointment we invite you to make your booking as early as possible and to secure it with a £50 deposit, payable to Science Boffins Ltd. The balance is payable not later than two weeks before the party date. Payments are non-refundable but will try to accommodate date/time changes if necessary.

2. We will always strive to offer you the nearest available Boffin but the acceptance of your booking fee does not guarantee availability.

3. You will be given in advance the name and mobile phone number of the Boffins attending your party. If you have any concerns on the day, do not hesitate to call the Boffin if the office is closed. Boffins have to keep to a time schedule and appreciate your guests being ready at the appointed time.

4. You are requested not to provide food or drink during the presentation and to encourage the children not to wander off to any other attractions that may be present.

5. We require a covered table about 1.2 m (4 feet) long in a quiet room large enough for all the children to sit down.

6. All parties are quoted based on a continuous presentation. We do not have any stops between sections apart from perhaps a short comfort break.

7. Please be aware that there is an inherent risk with Pop-Corn that some of the kernels will not pop and this presents a hazard to teeth. Please ensure your guests are aware of this as we cannot be responsible for any injuries.

8. All adults are most welcome to sit in on the presentation, but a minimum of one present at all times, please. If there are several adults we do request that they respect the presenter and remain quiet.

9. We operate a Money Back Guarantee. We hope this will never happen, but if you are unhappy with the Presentation or the Presenter stop the Boffin within 30 minutes of the start. Tell him/her that you are dissatisfied and the reason for it. We will refund in full whatever you have paid us for the Presentation as well as any costs paid to us for mileage.

10. Our Privacy Policy is to collect only the information that you supply us on the booking form or the contact form or over the telephone. This information is never divulged to any third parties. It is used solely for the purpose of informing you about our services and the performance of any event that you book. Should you require that we delete any information held, please e-mail Admin@ScienceBoffins.com. This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with your request.

11. We reserve the right to publish any user submitted comments, images and feedback

12. Telephone descriptions of the party are not a guarantee that any particular experiments will be performed. If there are any special requests we will endeavour without commitment to comply.

13. Should you have any documentation requirements viz Presenter Identification, CRB's, Public Liability Insurance, Risk Assessments etc., these must be requested a minimum of two weeks before the presentation.
