Site fees for this year ? Refund or roll over ?

Can you help us ??? Is there going to be any help for caravan owners who have paid fees for this year and cannot use the caravan whilst it’s on lockdown ? Will there be any help for the thousands of owners who will be out of pocket across Great Britain ??

No          .

No, in the same way that I don't anticipate any "help" for everybody who owns holiday homes which they can't visit (but still have to pay bills for). There are plenty of more deserving causes out there.

Nobody here can tell you. Certainly there have been no specific plans announced. At the moment everything is focused on the lockdown. Please keep in mind that people are dying and others have lost livelihoods that will not soon be returned to. 

Anyone who thinks businesses can afford to  simply grant refunds or that the government can afford the massive bill of compensating all the people adversely affected by this and other calamities are I think sadly mistaken

There is also the issue that the caravan is being stored on their site. This will incur some sort of charge. The fees are, in general, not just for use of the facilities but contain an element for storage fees.

So are you saying your parents were permanently living on a site which was not licensed for residential occupation

I have family on a residential caravan site and they are still staying in theirs.

Whereabouts is that?

Residential sites have different rules to holiday ones. If it was a residential site there is no reason the OP parents would have been told to leave.

Yes i know but was seeing if the OP knew which type theirs was.
