FAQs

Let us put your mind at rest.  Please do get in touch if you have any other questions.

Can someone other than me pick up my child?

Yes. We will need written confirmation from the child's parents / guardian so that we can sign them out at the end of the event.

What happens if my child gets ill while they're with you?

All of our staff have up-to-date First Aid qualifications and are competent at dealing with minor emergencies. If it is deemed necessary to seek further help then a child can be taken to either Southbourne Surgery or St Richard's Hospital in Chichester.

My child left something behind after their visit to CYE. Can you help?

We keep lost property items for a maximum of 1 week before giving them to charity. In order to return them we ask you to arrange a collection using the Royal Mail website. They will be able to collect the item from CYE and get it to you. Please contact the office to arrange this.
