Before you book for the demonstrations in Italy, please read the information below, along with the other information on our website.
Demonstrations will be organised by the International Shugden Community (ISC) in Livorno (Italy) on 14th and 15th June. You are very welcome to attend one or both of these demonstrations.
IF ANY OF THE ISC TRANSPORT OR ACCOMMODATION OPTIONS IN THE BOOKING FORM THAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SHOW AS “SOLD OUT“, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL TO [email protected]. WE ARE CURRENTLY FILLING UP THE LAST PLACES THROUGH THE BACK END OF THE BOOKING SYSTEM, SO IT IS VERY LIKELY WE CAN STILL EXCEPT YOUR BOOKING REQUEST. THIS MAY APPLY TO THE “TARA COACH” AND “BUNGALOW ACCOMMODATION“.
ISC Transport
In support of the demonstrations and to allow as many people as possible to attend the demonstrations, the ISC organises coaches from various European countries. There will be international coaches available from England, Germany and Switzerland.
If you fly into or take public transport to Italy, ISC offers you the possibility to join the Italian ISC coach travelling between the ISC accommodation and the demo site. To reserve a place in the Italian ISC coach, please select the “ISC Transport/Italian coach”-option in the booking form.
If you drive to Italy using your own transport you are kindly requested to also use your own transport between the accommodation and the demo sites.
When you wish to book for one of the European ISC coaches, please be prepared for sometimes quite long bus journeys. International bus journeys may be overnight, such as the journey from England to Italy, and from Germany to Italy. The ISC accommodation is less than an hour drive from the demonstration site.
ISC Accommodation
People who book one of the International ISC coaches are also provided with accommodation by ISC. If you make your own travel arrangements to Italy, you can book for either ISC accommodation or arrange your own accommodation.
When you book for ISC accommodation you have the choice to either camp (bring your own tent) or book for bungalow accommodation (for a small fee). ISC Bungalow accommodation will be shared, and may include dormitories.
Camping accommodation is offered to you for free, although a donation to cover the costs is much appreciated. If you book for Bungalow accommodation, an minimum accommodation fee of £11.00 per night will be charged. Only when you pay this minimum fee in advance, a bed in one of the bungalows will be reserved for you. Unfortunately the ISC is not able to book any single or double rooms, or make special accommodation arrangements for demonstrators.
More information about the accommodation will be send to you by email after booking.
ISC Meals
During the demonstration times you will be provided with a light vegetarian meal. Unfortunately the ISC is not able to provide for any special dietary request. Should you have a special diet, please prepare to make your own meal arrangements. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Advice for Families with children < 16 years
Unfortunately ISC is not able to provide accommodation and transport for families with children younger than 16 years of age for legal reasons. Accommodation and transport will be shared, and the ISC is not able to provide any special conditions for families and children. Therefore anyone under 16 years old cannot be accepted on the ISC accommodation and transport.
If you are part of a family with children under the age of 16 you are very welcome to provide your own accommodation and transport, and join the ISC demos in Livorno. However the parents would remain fully liabable for the well-being and safety of under-aged children, also during the demonstrations. When booking for children under 16 years, please contact ISC Registration at [email protected]
ISC Donation
To make attending the ISC demonstrations possible for as many people as possible, we kindly request you to contribute towards the costs of the European demonstrations by making a donation when you book.
When booking you will be shown a suggested donation amount for the options that you have chosen. This suggested donation covers the actual costs of your booking. However, any donation you would be able to provide is most welcome.
Should you have any queries or comments, please contact a member of the registration team at [email protected]
Thank you very much for your support of the European demonstrations.
