areas of interest as possible.

I want
to be included in the directory, but I really hate computers!
|
|
If you, or your group, charity or
organisation would like to be included in the directory, but
you just can't cope with the idea of using your computer to
fill in the online forms and make a submission to the
directory, you can still be included!
Just write to me, my address can be found
on the
contact page. If you have one, please include a
leaflet about your organisation, and just give as much
information about what it does and who it does it for and I
will then complete the forms on your behalf.
Once your listing is ready, If you
wish, I can send a printed copy of your listing by post or
email for your approval and from time to time will contact
you to confirm that your details are still correct.
If you want to know more please
contact me.

sure which form to use, Add Charity URL or Add Premium

form you use to submit a URL to the directory we still
get the information! However when you complete the
Add Premium URL form you will be taken on to further
pages to make a payment immediately through PayPal, or
to select another billing method.
If you intended to submit a
listing which was meant to be free, don't panic ... If
you get to the page entitled
Payments Through PayPal, just click the link in the main
menu to go to the home page. All submissions are
reviewed before being made available on the directory,
If we think you should of paid, we will tell you!

Inclusion Policy |
|
uhad2bthere and its directory
are about disability. It might be obvious to say this,
but if you want to be included in the directory and your
product or service is not related to disability, or is not
of obvious benefit to people with a disability then its
probably not for you. Regardless
of whether you have free inclusion in the directory (a
Charity URL) or a
Premium URL listing, inclusion in the directory is entirely
at the discretion of the site and its owners. If you
have applied to be included in the directory and your
request has been rejected you will normally receive an
explanation from a human being to tell you the reason.
In some cases you may be offered suggestions about how you
may modify your wording to make your application acceptable.
If you have paid for a Premium listing
and it is rejected and you do not wish to modify your
wording or you are just not given the opportunity, your
payment will be returned to you in full within 28
days.
If your product or service is judged
to provide a poor service to people with a disability, even
after your inclusion on the directory, uhad2bthere reserves
the right to either not include your listing or remove your
listing from the directory. If following inclusion
your listing is removed within 28 days of your application,
then any payment you have made will be refunded to you, less
a £10 administration fee.
Uhad2bthere can accept no liability
for circumstances considered to be outside of its reasonable
control. And you understand and agree that in requesting
that you be included in the directory you are bound by these
terms and conditions, both in fact and in the spirit of this
agreement and inclusion policy.

Is uhad2bthere for profit? |
| No, is the brief answer ...
However, we do encourage commercial organisations to
sign up for paid listings using the Premium URL system in order to help
cover the cost of maintaining the site and to recover some of the
original start up costs.
We do also receive small payments from Google and
Amazon whenever the links on the right hand side of the page are clicked
... So if you are going to buy stuff from Amazon why not do it through
one of our links? The final price to you is the same, but uhad2bthere
benefits too!

uhad2bthere Shirts & Stuff |
| The Basics
The shop is partnered with Shirtcity.com. So
that means that Shirtcity are responsible for producing the items,
despatch and all payment transactions. uhad2bthere does take a small
commission, typically on average about £1 per item. But its important to
note that should you purchase an item you are purchasing from Shirtcity
and not from us.
Any problems with orders or questions about an
item should be addressed to them through the 'Contact Us' link near the
bottom of the shop page.
|
| Custom designs for you?
We can produce one off custom designs either for your
organisation or you as an individual, on t-shirts, mugs, caps, bags, and
a whole host of other items. New designs that are text based are
free to design, though items that involve pictures, graphics or logos
cost us an initial fee of £1.50 to upload the imagery. If you have
a design made with a graphic, please bear this in mind and buy at least
one item so that we are not out of pocket, please.
Shirtcity produce the items in ones and twos
depending on the orders they receive so if your potential order is
likely to exceed say 15 - 20 off of a particular item (say 15 medium
t-shirts in red, or 15 identical white mugs) then you may be better off
searching around the web first ...
If you would like a custom design please
contact us to discuss this. |
| Copyright
The designs in the shop are exclusive and are
therefore protected. If you want a design from the shop that bad,
buy it from the shop! |
| Disclaimer!
Some of the designs on the t-shirts may be considered
a little er, rude. if you are offended sorry. If you want to
buy one great. Just be careful where you take your jumper off.
