Cost

We do not charge for our events. We require £7.50 to reserve your place which consists of £5 payment as a deposit towards your food, and £2.50 non-refundable PayPal/Admin fees.

Finally, we want to include everyone. Therefore, please email us at finance@womenempoweredmcr.org if you would like to apply for funding to attend this event.

PayPal/Admin Costs

PayPal charges us a non-refundable fee for every transaction and their rates are varied and keep changing but they are generally between £0.45 and 1.50. Therefore, we are charing a flat fee of £1 to cover this fee. We are also charging £1.50 per event to over other costs such as reimbursements of costs to volunteers. We are a nonprofit entity and all funds go towards helping women.

Meetup Costs

Recently Meetup is adding their costs to the reservations when you reserve here. Therefore, when you are making payment, you may see a higher fee to cover this cost. We do not receive this additional money.

If you would like to avoid this additional cost, you can pay us directly by bank transfer or using paypal. Please email us at directors@empowerdwomen-mcr.org to arrange this. Reservations will be made on a first-come, first-served basis.

Refund Policy

If you attend, you will receive your £5 deposit back at the restaurant to pay for your food. You will then need to pay for any additional costs of your food and the service charge.

Please get in touch if you are unable to attend an event. Generally speaking, your payment is non-refundable. However, where the terms and conditions of the venue allow for a refund and you have an unforeseeable or urgent issue, we may be able to offer a refund, minus any costs we have incurred (such as the PayPal/Admin fees, if any).

Also, we always welcome substitutes. If you can't make it, why not resell or gift your space to someone else?

Photography/Videography

We take photos/videos and use them for marketing purpose and in order to encourage other women, who may be anxious and alone, to join us. However, we also respect everyone’s right to privacy and we want you to feel safe at our events. Therefore, if you would not like to be photographed, simply please inform our photographer or a member of our team. We will then place a heart over your face to protect your identity when using the photos/videos for marketing purposes. Or, you can simply remove yourself from the area when we are taking photos/videos.

Please note that, due to social media settings, we cannot remove your photos/videos after they are posted. Therefore, please remove yourself or inform a member of our team at the start of the event so that we can modify the photos before we post them.
