Hi everyone!
We have block-reserved rooms at Wortley Hall for 3 nights checking in on Monday 27th November and checking out on Thursday 30th November.
There will be sessions from Monday afternoon until Thursday late morning, and the facilitation team will be in touch shortly with an update on this.
Wortley Hall have reserved:
4 x single rooms
21 x double rooms
24 x twin rooms
We also have the option of one of the cottages on the estate if we require the extra space.
HOW TO BOOK
Unfortunately, Wortley Hall cannot manage the room reservations themselves as we have booked them as part of a conference package. That means that we (Agile Collective and Go Free Range) are managing the booking and invoicing of the rooms on behalf of CoTech.
Here’s how it works:
There’s a form linked at the bottom of this email
Follow the link to copy the form to your Google Drive account (If you don’t use Google Drive please contact us for an Excel version)
Fill it in on behalf of everyone in your cooperative who is attending including a contact name and number
Send it back to us (by sharing it with chris.lowis@gofreerange.com and aaron@agile.coop )
We’ll allocate the rooms on a first-come, first-served basis.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Based on the interest there has been in this event there is unlikely to be enough rooms for everyone to have single occupancy. Please, please consider sharing a twin room with someone else if you can to ensure that as many people as possible can stay at Wortley Hall.
If you do not wish to stay at Wortley Hall, or we’ve run out of rooms by the time you send the form back to us, there are some alternative accommodation options available. See the end of this message for details.
There is also the option on the form to request “lunch only” or “lunch and dinner only”. Wortley Hall charge for day attendees and use of the conference facilities so you must choose one of these options if you are attending even if you are not staying overnight.
We are aware that some people would like to come but are unable to stay for the full 3 days so we have added this to the booking form.
In the interest of full transparency the costs quoted to us by Wortley Hall (and that we are passing on to you) are
Single occupancy (full board) = £102 per-person / per-night
Shared occupancy (full board) = £87 per-person / per-night
Day rate (lunch only) = £35 per-person / per-day
Day rate (lunch and dinner) = £57 per-person / per-day
PLEASE NOTE there will be some additional costs to attend the retreat - likely to include at least facilitation and possibly entertainment. In the interests of getting our accommodation with Wortley Hall secured, these things will be arranged (and invoiced) separately.
Thanks for reading! Now, go ahead and fill out the booking form:
And when you’re done share it with chris.lowis@gofreerange and aaron@agile.coop
If you have any questions, please get in touch.
Cheers,
Chris (Go Free Range) and Aaron (Agile Collective)
