So booking your day at "the Hut" is a case of "first come first served" and we allocate and reserve the days as the individual phone calls are received. This may mean that you will be on the phone for some time trying to get through, but the good news is that once you do get your called answered, you will be given an instant answer by our volunteer call handlers. It is therfore important that the person making the call on your behalf has the authority to make an instant decison about what day to accept if your first choice prefered day has already been allocated to an earlier caller. We will ask you for a contact name and phone number when you call - so please have that ready.

Knowing that there will probably be lots of people trying to get their call answered, we try to keep each call as short as possible. We would love to stop and have a chat about "the Hut", but that would mean keeping other callers waiting - so pleased don't be offened if we try to deal with your call in the shortest possible time.
