IMPORTANT NOTES

  • The Awayday is primarily aimed at freelance ELT editors and proofreaders. However, those with other roles within the sector are very welcome to attend, and we usually have a few authors, designers, picture researchers, permissions consultants, etc. 
  • If you are purchasing a Freelancers' Awayday Ticket, indicate whether you would like to be allocated a 15-minute one-to-one slot with Phil Hendy (accountant) during the ticket purchase process, and then book your slot using the link in your ticket confirmation email.
  • If you are purchasing a Publishers' Awayday Ticket, note that you may be requested not to attend certain sessions if they are of a sensitive nature (e.g. presentations by publishing houses about their ways of working and publishing plans). We usually offer an alternative session in these cases.
  • The pre-conference dinner and the Awayday are separate events. Many of the Awayday delegates stay in the
    hotel the night before the Awayday and also attend the dinner. However, local freelancers may choose to attend the dinner only.
  • Tickets are non-refundable and the booking fee is included in the price. We recommend that you take out insurance (offered by Billetto during the check out process).

FAQ

  • I have not received my ticket via email. What should I do?

    The first thing to do is check your spam/junk filters and inboxes. Your tickets were sent as an attachment and can be thought of as spam by some email services. Alternatively, you can always find your tickets in your Billetto account that you can access in the browsers or the dedicated Billetto app. For more help with this, read here.

  • I wish to cancel my ticket and receive a refund. What should I do?

    The approval of refunds is entirely at the event organiser’s discretion, and you should get in contact with the event organiser to discuss what options are available to you. To get in touch with the event organiser, simply reply to your order confirmation email or use the "Contact organiser" form on the organiser's profile. For more help with this, read here.

  • I have registered on the waiting list, what happens now?

    If more tickets become available you will be notified (by email) amongst others who have joined the list. Purchasing is on a first-come first-serve basis. For more information, read here.

  • Where do I find a link to an online event?

    Check your order confirmation page or order confirmation email. Usually, the organiser of the event provides the details in the order confirmation email or they might send you a follow-up email with a link to their online event. You might also want to read the event description on Billetto where an event organiser should describe how to join the event online. For more information on this, read here.

  • What is refund protection and why would I need it?

    Refund Protection provides you with the assurance that if unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances interfere with your ability to attend an event you can claim a refund. For more information on this, read here.
