If you are likely to be unable to use the Club, by reason of a serious injury or illness, for a period of at least two months (and you are able to provide reasonable evidence of this to us, such as a doctor's certificate). Please submit this request to us in writing along with your evidence, once this is received we will be in touch with you to confirm the next steps. 

Relocation
