The scheme is further updated, with effect from 1st February 2023, as follows:

Once*** per calendar year HASSRA Wales members can reclaim the purchase cost of tickets, or £25 (whichever is the lesser amount), for a non sporting event that takes place in the UK. This scheme applies to the member attending the event and covers one additional partner, or guest, and any of the member's children up to a maximum of £25 per claim. The temporary uplift to 2 claims per year, offered as a result of the lifting of COVID restrictions, is revoked with effect from 1st February 2023 and the number of claims reverts to one per year from that date.

Claims made before 31st January 2023 for any event within the preceding 12 months will count as a claim for the previous year where the maximum number of claims have not already been paid**.

From 1st February 2023 any claim made for an event in the preceding 12 months will be counted towards the member's one claim limit for 2023

Amount payable, for each event, is limited to a maximum of £25 per claim, or the cost of tickets, whichever is the lesser amount
Claims should be made AFTER attending the event and should be submitted with copies of tickets or ticket stubs*
Theme parks, Zoos, Stately homes etc are regarded as venues or attractions, not events. Claims on entry tickets for these are not eligible under this scheme

Please apply the rules described above when making a claim.

*Any claims made before the event will be rejected. Early claims, that have been rejected on that basis, may be re-submitted after the event has been attended

** In recognition of the increased appetite to attend events following the lifting of COVID 19 restrictions, the number of claims allowed was raised to two a year until 31st January 2023 . Claims made by 31st January 2023 for events attended in the preceding 12 months will be counted towards the 2 claim limit unless that limit is already reached, in which case in which case the claim will be counted as a 2023 claim.

*** With effect from 1st February 2023 the scheme is reverting to one claim per member for any event attended in the preceding 12 months
