TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) below apply to all Coaching packages provided by Claire Roberts (‘the coach’), to any individual (‘the client’). These T&Cs constitute the contract for the service between Claire Roberts and the client.
The term ‘coaching’ covers Sobriety, Wellbeing and Mindset Coaching for clients, provided under the relevant coaching package the client purchases.
The client understands that Claire Roberts does not provide ‘recovery’ or ‘rehabilitation’ services, and none of the packages provided by the coach are appropriate for individuals who are medically dependent on alcohol. Coaching is not a substitute for professional mental health care or medical care.
Coaching Disclaimer
- In committing to sobriety and wellbeing coaching with Claire Roberts, you acknowledge the following:
- You understand that your Coach is not acting as a mental health counsellor or a medical professional. The coaching services you will be receiving from your Coach are not offered as a substitute for professional mental health care or medical care and are not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any mental health or medical condition.
- You understand that coaching is not a substitute for counselling, psychotherapy, substance abuse treatment or mental health care; and you will not use it in place of any form of therapy.
- You understand that coaching is currently an unregulated industry and that your Coach is not licensed or regulated by any United Kingdom government body even though the sessions take place either in person in the United Kingdom or virtually.
- You understand and agree that you are fully responsible for your well-being during your coaching sessions and afterwards, including your choices and decisions.
- You understand that results are not guaranteed.
- You understand that all guidance offered by your Coach is for the purpose of aiding you in achieving the goals as agreed within your sessions.
- You declare that you, the client, are not medically dependent on alcohol.
- Although sobriety is not essential to participate in coaching sessions with Claire Roberts, you will not attend coaching sessions under the influence of alcohol or any other substances.
Data Protection and Confidentiality
You understand that your Coach will protect your information as confidential unless you state otherwise in writing.
Data Security
You understand that the use of technology is not always secure and you accept the risks of confidentiality in the use of email, text, phone, WhatsApp, Zoom and any other technology.
Session Frequency and Schedule
The coaching schedule will be arranged between the Coach and the client and the first session can be booked up to four weeks in advance. Claire Roberts will recommend the frequency of coaching sessions based on the package selected by the client. This schedule is not binding and may be altered and adjusted by mutual agreement. Session times are approximate but may be shorter if the session reaches a natural close prior to the maximum session time being reached.
6 Sessions Package
Six 60 minute sessions will be provided. These sessions take place in no more than a span of 8 weeks. Ideally, the 6 sessions are completed within 6 weeks, however we all know life happens. The sessions are structured in a way that the client will have new actions after each session to integrate into their life. This package is designed for the client to abstain from alcohol beginning at the time of the first session or just after. By signing up to this package, the client understands that abstinence from alcohol is expected for at least 30 days while the coaching is ongoing, but aiming for 6 weeks of sobriety.
Format of Sessions
All session types are by telephone call or Zoom if preferred. In the event the client is local to Claire Roberts, an in-person session can be arranged. The coach will provide the client with confirmation of the call details or the Zoom meeting details prior to any appointment via email. It is the client’s responsibility to ensure they have functioning technology and are in an appropriate setting at the agreed time of the session.
The coach will ensure they are available for the session at the agreed time. Should it be impossible to complete a session due to technological issues on behalf of the coach, the session will be rescheduled at the first possible convenience for both the coach and the client.
Session Fees and Payment
In return for the fees payable by the client, Claire Roberts agrees to provide the service as described above and in accordance with the terms and conditions set out within this document.
The client agrees to pay fees for the service in advance of the first session of the package. Payment of fees can be done through bank transfer or card payment on receipt of invoice following the discovery call.
Coaching Packages
Fees for each package are outlined on the website. Any payments for sessions paid in advance are honored even if prices have risen between the point of booking and the time of session.
Dates and Times of Sessions
This will be confirmed by the coach by email prior to the session. In the unlikely event the coach has a calendar clash at the time of booking, a mutually agreeable time will be arranged, or refund offered as applicable.
Subsequent sessions will be arranged between the coach and client. Where possible, electronic invitations including zoom links will be emailed to the client by the coach as soon as possible after arranged.
Sessions can only be rearranged in accordance with the section in these terms and conditions headed “Rearranging Sessions”.
Between Sessions
Claire Roberts may assign the client tasks or exercises to complete between coaching sessions. There is no obligation on the client to complete these, but not doing so may slow the client’s progress in achieving their desired goals.
Rearranging Sessions
If a client needs to rearrange a coaching session, they should provide at least 24 hours’ notice. Where possible, Claire Roberts will try to accommodate rearranged appointments within 24 hours’ notice, however, this may not be possible. No refunds are possible for appointments that are unable to be scheduled in line with the coaching schedule. In exceptional circumstances, Claire Roberts may need to rearrange a coaching session. In those instances, the client will also receive 24 hours notice where practical.
Where a client pays for a session or sessions in advance they must have the coaching session(s) that they have paid for within 3 months of the payment. Failure to do this will result in their fee being forfeited.
Confidentiality
Personal information supplied by clients in coaching sessions will be treated as confidential. It will not be disclosed to a third party without the client’s prior permission, except where required by law or where action might be necessary to prevent harm to the client or someone else.
Client details will be kept securely by Claire Roberts in line with the requirements of the law and professional indemnity insurance policies.
Client details will never be used for marketing purposes except for those opted into by the client on the client agreement form. Any subsequent request to opt out of marketing received by Claire Roberts via email will supersede the initial agreement.
Termination of Coaching Mid-Package
In exceptional circumstances, such as illness or unavailability due to bereavement or other commitments, inappropriate behaviour by the client, or conflict of interest, or other reasons, Claire Roberts can decide to terminate the service to the client early, or refuse, or be unable, to provide further coaching sessions to the client. In such a circumstance the client will be given reasonable notice of termination by the coach where practicable and will be refunded any advance payments made for coaching sessions not yet provided; proportionate to the package fee.
Should the client need to terminate coaching prior to completion of the package, any refunds will be at the discretion of the coach.
Refunds
Refunds will be issued ONLY when services have not yet begun to take place. There will be a 15% less charge in the refund to account for administrative fees. Refunds cannot be given for provided memberships to The Sober Club as part of the 6 week package.
Responsibilities
In line with all coaching, the client has sole responsibility for making important decisions in their life with regards to sobriety and other goals. The coach has no liability for any loss incurred by any client, whether financial or otherwise, following commencement of coaching sessions, or for any perceived failure by the client, whether justified or otherwise, to achieve a material improvement in their relationship with alcohol or to achieve their desired outcomes or goals.
Variation of Terms & Conditions
Any changes to these terms and conditions intended to take effect prior to the conclusion of a package will only have effect if agreed by both the coach and the client and confirmed in writing by email by the coach.
Claire Roberts professionally adheres to the Sober Code – sobercode.co.uk
The Sober Code is a resource and voluntary code of ethics, to encourage a commitment by Sober Coaches to always –
– help to protect those whose alcohol dependence makes them vulnerable
– ask qualifying questions about alcohol dependence as part of the chemistry session if you believe that there is a risk of physical dependence (using the AUDIT tool*)
– ensure that people who you suspect may be physically dependent on alcohol understand that withdrawal can be fatal if not managed properly
– direct those who you believe may have a physical dependence on alcohol to seek more specialist treatment through their doctor
– ensure that all people seeking sobriety are treated with dignity and respect at all times
– put the welfare and needs of the client before your own
- The AUDIT tool (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) is a simple and effective method of screening for risky/hazardous consumption and any alcohol use disorder. Based on the data from a multinational World Health Organisation collaborative study, the AUDIT has become the world’s most widely used alcohol screening instrument since its publication in 1989.

TERMS & CONDITIONS – EVENT/WORKSHOP BOOKINGS
Definitions
For the purposes of this Agreement, the following capitalised terms shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms, unless the context otherwise requires:
“Customer” means the person, firm or company who books and pays for an Event and is identified as the person responsible for enrolling Participant(s);
“Event” means any single or multi-session event offered on the website, including without limitation courses, one-day workshops, evening workshops, weekend retreats, events, one-to-one sessions;
“Participant” means a person attending an Event and may include a Customer;
“Participant Agreement” means the acceptance of these terms and conditions by each Participant before being allowed entry to an Event;
“Services” means the preparation, arranging and staging of Events (including all associated materials);
“Website”: the website at www.claireroberts.com and the Company’s social networking pages.
Agreement
Making a booking on Claire Roberts website involves creating a legally binding contract (the “Agreement”) between (1) the Customer, (2) the Participant(s) made under the same booking (referred to throughout the Agreement as “you” or “your”) and (3) Claire Roberts (the “Company”, “we” and “us”). By making the booking on behalf of one or more Participants you confirm that you are authorised to agree to these terms and conditions on behalf of each Participant.
We provide our events and services to you subject to this Agreement, so as always with a binding contract, you should read through it carefully before making a booking. We may make changes to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, but the latest version will always appear on this page. If you continue to use the Website or services after changes have been made, you will be considered to have accepted the changes to the Agreement between us.
Bookings
Each Event has a specific maximum capacity for the number of people that can attend, which varies by event and may be shown in the event listing page on the Website.
The Customer is deemed to accept these terms upon booking upon an Event and is responsible for ensuring the accuracy of all details submitted on the booking form. These terms govern the booking for the Event to the exclusion of any terms and conditions of the Customer. The booking form incorporates these terms and constitutes a legally binding contract.
When you book an Event with us through our website, the booking won’t be confirmed until we send you an email confirmation, even if you‘ve transferred money to us.
We will email your booking confirmation, to the email address provided during checkout. If you have not received your confirmation within 48 hours of booking, please contact us. It is your responsibility to ensure that your email is set up to allow you to receive your confirmation, and we cannot accept any liability for any consequences of your not doing so. Please retain proof of your registration, as this and/or identification may be requested upon check-in for the Event.
Some courses may require the submission of a participant questionnaire after a booking is made. This will allow us to be aware of any issues that they need to be sensitive to during the event and to schedule a follow up call, if necessary. If for any reason, any information provided suggests that a Participant is not fit to attend the course, we reserve the right to cancel their booking and refund that Participant’s booking fees in full to the Customer.
By registering for the course, all Participants assume the responsibility of ensuring they are physically and psychologically fit to participate in this programme and that they have consulted with their doctor or psychologists as necessary. Neither the Company nor any of its staff or representatives will be making any judgment as to a Participant’s fitness to participate in this programme. However, the Participant should inform the instructor or administrators (privately) of any personal concerns that may arise. If for any reason we find it necessary to ask a Participant to leave a session or the course altogether, the Participant agrees to do so immediately.
Some of the activities undertaken in our courses are movement or floor-based. It is always the responsibility of each participant to make the decision about whether to take part in a specific activity. If there is any doubt, the decision should always be to exercise caution and we recommend that participants consult a GP or other health professional, if ever unsure whether any activity is safe for them to do.
Payment
Unless otherwise stated, all prices shown on the Website are inclusive of VAT and other applicable UK taxes. Orders must be paid for immediately by bank transfer, credit or debit card. If we cannot accept your order for any reason, we will process a full refund within seven days.
Cancellations or Changes to Bookings
Cancellation by the Company
In the case that the event is cancelled prior to commencement by the Company, any advance paid fees will be refunded in full. However, we will not be able to compensate you for any other expenses you have incurred in connection with the Event.
Session Rescheduling by the Company
If an Event or one of the sessions making up an Event needs to be cancelled as a result of teacher absence or due to other unforeseeable circumstance, we will make reasonable efforts to reschedule it for an alternative day/time. In this case, Participants will be responsible for any special arrangements required to attend the session.
Cancellation by the Participant or Customer
If an Agreement is cancelled by a Participant or a Customer we are unable to offer any refunds or course transfers if cancelled less than 14 days prior to the Event. If a Participant fails to attend the Event, the Customer is not entitled to a refund or transfer.
If an Agreement is cancelled by the Customer or a Participant more than 14 days before an Event or the first session of an Event, we will refund the full fee minus a 10% administration fee and any costs incurred by the Company in providing the Services. Alternatively, the full fee can be applied as a credit towards a future course, which must be booked in advance and is subject to availability.
You must send your cancellation or transfer request to us by email at claire@claireroberts.com
Severability
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable then that provision shall be deemed amended to the minimal extent required to make such provision enforceable and the unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms.
In circumstances where a provision cannot be amended in order to become valid and enforceable, such provision shall, to that extent only, be severed from the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions, which shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Attendance and Conduct for Events
Please ensure you arrive on time for your Event. We welcome early arrival, but ask that you arrive no more than 15 minutes early for the sessions.
The Company reserves the right to refuse admission to any person whom it considers in its absolute discretion to be unsuitable for admission to the Event or to remove any such person after the commencement of the Event.
We also request, and by entering into this Agreement you agree, to ensure that you and all Participants attending an Event under a booking made by you comply with all health and safety, licensing, and other rules and regulations of the venue or applicable to the venue. It is your responsibility to familiarise yourself and all Participants with any rules and regulations that apply.
Confidentiality
We take the confidentiality of those who come to our Events/courses very seriously. We are under an obligation to keep any Participant information shared prior to and during the events completely confidential (except as otherwise required by law).
From time to time, Participants may share sensitive personal information during a group session. We expect all Participants to respect each other’s confidentiality and treat any information shared in the course group as confidential. If it should come to our attention that information gained in this way about another Participant has been shared inappropriately or outside the group, this would be treated extremely seriously and may result in the Participant involved being asked to leave the event.
Materials and Handouts
Unless stated otherwise, the first copy of any Event/course materials are included in the course fees. If for any reason additional copies are requested, these will be made available at an additional cost.
Any recorded or written material included or presented as part of the Event/course is protected by intellectual property laws, including copyright laws and may not be used without obtaining prior written permission from the Company and the respective authors.
Liability
None of our Events are intended to provide a therapeutic environment or be a substitute for counselling, psychotherapy, or ongoing medical advice from a qualified medical practitioner and subject to the below, the Company excludes any liability relating to any statement or representation made in respect of the therapeutic, psychological or medical benefits of our services or Events. Any unresolved issues which may surface and which may warrant medical treatment, counselling or psychotherapy, will be at the Participant’s own risk and expense.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury arising from our negligence, or our fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by English law.
To the extent permitted by law, we exclude all conditions, warranties, representations or other terms which may apply to the Website or any content on it, whether express or implied.

We do not in any way exclude or limit our liability for:
- death or personal injury caused by our negligence;

Returns and Cancellation Policy
If you are a consumer, you have a legal right to cancel an Agreement during the period set out in the table below. This means that during the relevant period if you change your mind or decide for any other reason that you do not want to receive or keep a Product, you can notify us of your decision to cancel the Agreement and receive a refund.
However, this cancellation right does not apply in the case of Products that have been customised, personalised or have been made to your specific specifications.
Your legal right to cancel an Agreement starts from the date of the “Dispatch Confirmation” (the date on which we email you to confirm our acceptance of your order), which is when the Agreement between us is formed. Your deadline for cancelling the Agreement then depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered, as set out in the table below:
Agreement | End of the cancellation period |
The Agreement is for a single Product (which is not delivered in instalments on separate days). | The end date is the end of 14 days after the day on which you receive the Product. Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the Product on 10 January you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January. |
The Agreement is for either of the following:one Product which is delivered in instalments on separate days.multiple Products which are delivered on separate days. | The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the last instalment of the Product or the last of the separate Products ordered.Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January and you receive the first instalment of your Product or the first of your separate Products on 10 January and the last instalment or last separate Product on 15 January you may cancel in respect of all instalments and any or all of the separate Products at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 29 January. |
The Agreement is for the regular delivery of a Product over a set period. | The end date is 14 days after the day on which you receive the first delivery of the Products. Example: if we provide you with a Dispatch Confirmation on 1 January in respect of Products to be delivered at regular intervals over a year and you receive the first delivery of your Product on 10 January, you may cancel at any time between 1 January and the end of the day on 24 January. 24 January is the last day of the cancellation period in respect of all Products to arrive during the year. |
To cancel an Agreement, you just need to let us know that you have decided to cancel. You can do this by emailing us at claire@claireroberts.com.
