Participation in Sessions

Before taking part in any face-to-face, live online or pre-recorded session with Beth Cox of Core Patterns, you’ll be asked to complete a health questionnaire. This includes a disclaimer and consent statement in line with UK GDPR.

If you choose not to complete the health questionnaire, you are participating in any material offered on the Core Patterns website at your own risk, and Beth will be unable to offer modifications or adjustments appropriate to your needs.
