Hello hikers,
We're really sorry to announce that, due to bad weather along the Seven Sisters cliff, we have decided to cancel tomorrow’s Seven Sisters Hike (Saturday, 4th October).
The weather forecast has predicted more severe conditions than expected. Winds are expected to reach 60 miles per hour tomorrow near the coastal cliffs area, which may cause potential disruption to transport and pose a serious risk to the safety and well-being of hikers.
As a club, we sincerely apologise for this last-minute cancellation. We ask that you understand our decision – the safety of our club members is our top priority, and that we may have to cancel or suspend our events if necessary.
It is possible for you to request a refund, as UK train companies can usually offer refunds for tickets that have not been used. In some cases, it might not be possible for train companies to offer a full refund. For those who have bought Advance Single tickets, these tickets cannot be cancelled, but they can be rescheduled to another date. Here are the links to relevant train companies that offer refunds:

TrainPal: https://www.mytrainpal.com/faq/ticket-refunds-and-changes
Avanti West Coast: https://www.avantiwestcoast.co.uk/help-and-support/refund-journey
National Rail: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/help-and-assistance/compensation-and-refunds/
Thank you for your understanding and patience. To make up for this last-minute cancellation, we are looking into adding a 4th Taster weekend on 18th-19th October.
