About Boing! Parties

What happens if we booked a party that was not able to happen due to coronavirus?
Someone should have been in contact with you - if that is not the case please do let us know as soon as you can. We have been so grateful for the help and support we have received from so many people and that includes customers who have simply beared with us during this difficult period. Many of you have agreed to your outstanding party being deferred and this has really helped us survive until now.
