3.5. Should we be unable to attend a Session or Individual Session then we will make all reasonable attempts to provide you with as much notice as possible and to reschedule to a mutually convenient time.

4.4. As part of your participation in the Programme and access to the Services, you may be required to review and make decisions concerning your personal and home life, business and career, finances, lifestyle, education and development and health and wellness.
