A change of leader shall not constitute a material alteration. However, any liability in respect of air or sea carriage is limited to the terms and conditions laid down by the relevant international conventions. We are not in a position to state airlines or aircraft types which will be used during our tours. We will also give prompt assistance and guidance even when a client suffers loss or damage through no fault of our own, though we reserve the right to recover costs in the event of a successful claim by a client against a third party or a suitable insurance policy. We will advise you of the necessary documentation, but it is your duty to ensure that you are in possession of valid and correct paperwork.
Help is available on request.
The FSC does not allow the collecting of any specimens from the natural world. Persons booking with the FSC should be prepared to abide by our code of conduct with regard to safeguarding the natural environment and must also agree to follow the safety instructions of group leaders at all times. It is important to recognise that, although leaders are chosen for their experience in leading field study courses and are able to offer advice on safety procedures and conduct in the field, participants each have a legal responsibility to take all reasonable precautions to maintain their own safety and not to endanger other members of the party. In the unlikely event of cause for complaint you must notify one of the leaders during the course so that we may do our best to assist you. If the problem remains unresolved in spite of prompt notification and you wish to write to us then this must be done within 14 days of the completion of the course.
