Website Information
 

Information about membership and workshop activities is provided for guidance and does not, by itself, guarantee acceptance of a membership application, access to facilities or participation in a particular activity.
 

Membership applications are subject to our membership arrangements and any applicable eligibility, induction and safety requirements.
 

Members and visitors participating in workshop activities must comply with our relevant policies, Code of Conduct, health and safety procedures, safeguarding requirements and reasonable instructions from authorised representatives of The Good News Shed.
 

Use of tools, machinery and workshop equipment may be subject to induction, training, supervision and other safety restrictions.
 

These website Terms and Conditions do not replace any separate membership agreement, workshop rules, consent form or other terms that apply to a particular activity.

​
 

Donations And Fundraising
 

We welcome support for our charitable work, including financial donations, tools, materials, equipment and fundraising activities.
 

Information about fundraising initiatives and suggested donation amounts is provided for guidance unless expressly stated otherwise.
 

Where donations are made through our website or a third-party donation platform, any additional terms displayed during the donation process may also apply.

​

Unless expressly agreed otherwise, donations are voluntary contributions to support our charitable purposes. A donation does not automatically entitle the donor to membership, goods, services or any other benefit.
 

If a fundraising appeal specifies a particular purpose, we will handle donations in accordance with the terms communicated for that appeal and our applicable charitable obligations.
 

If you have a question about a donation, please contact us using the details provided below.

Sales, Commissions And Products
 

We may publish information about items made by our members, products for sale, commissioned projects, events and other fundraising activities.
 

Unless a specific offer or sale is expressly made through the website, information about products or commissions is an invitation to enquire and does not constitute a binding offer to sell.
 

Any sale, commission or other paid arrangement may be subject to separate terms covering price, specifications, payment, collection or delivery, cancellations, returns and any applicable warranties.
 

Where you purchase goods or services as a consumer, your statutory rights remain unaffected. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
