Are you really a free service?
Yes, we are paid a small commission by the venues for the business placed with them. This is paid to us after the event takes place and when the final invoice is paid in full by the client.

Each member of the team has years of experience and knowledge within the industry to enable us to provide the best solutions to match any brief.
Are venue rates increased to cover the commission payment?
No, not at all; due to our buying power and negotiation skills we will always endeavour to get the best possible rates for our clients and to match any budget.
Do you book Entertainment?

What team building activities can you organise ?
Anything from indoor to outdoor events, competitive challenges, creative and artistic workshops, sporting activities, culinary ice breakers and many more. These events can be tailor made to suit budget and expectations.
