BIRTHDAY PARTY

Policy on Birthday Parties at WimborneDSME
As a club we have always had an open policy regarding birthdays, meaning you bring the party gear, gazebo (if required), tablecloths, balloons, cake etc to one of our public open days. These are on the 1st and 3rd of each month April to October. Please look at the 'Open Day page for individual days. We are unable to cater for you on our Gala day, Halloween or Christmas run as these are very busy. For your event a picnic table (1 or 2) will be allocated for you to set up and decorate however you like, within our picnic area.
The price for your party will be advised to you on application ,this will help towards the upkeep of the railway so many more visitors can enjoy their time with us. Parties must be booked in advance using the contact details below. Due to the size of our site / picnic area we cannot handle too many parties on the same day so please provide an arrival time of either 11am or 1:30pm the date you prefer and rough numbers attending in your email. We will then put your details on our calendar to ensure we have enough members and trains available.

YOUNG CHILDREN
Following a review of our Health & Safety arrangements and advice from external sources, we are unable to carry small infants who are below 12 months and below the height on the chart on the station platform as they could be particularly vulnerable if there was an incident.
Young children between the age of 12 months and 24 months need to sit in front of an accompanying adult. Children up to 6 years of age are not permitted to be carried without an accompanying adult.
NOTE
Please bring enough adults to supervise your young ones whilst on site as this is not our responsibility.
On your booked day please speak to a member to let us know you have arrived.
Please use the main overflow carpark for all your guests just past our club main entrance as parking is at a minimum.
