Yes and you will be prompted to tell us about any special dietary requirements when you book your ticket
No the event is free to you so you just need to pay your own travel expenses. The two charities running the event will be paying £50 for each place though so please do let us know if you book but then cannot attend. Your place can then be given to somebody else
Yes if you need somebody to stay with you and help you on the day that is fine, they will need to register too as there is a limit to numbers and we will need to know their dietary requirements.
