Client testimonials
"Norwich and Norfolk have been hidden gems in the UK conference market. But the county is fast emerging as an area with a great deal to offer. Perceptions of remoteness no longer reflect reality. Improvements in the road network have brought London and the Midlands to within two to three hours' drive time, while better rail services and the growth in domestic flights to Norwich International Airport, have made the region accessible to most of the UK and Europe via Schipol.
I was particularly struck by the investment in venues, I am really looking forward to bringing the BACD Convention to Norwich in 2009. I know that we will have a very successful event and am confident that BACD delegates will be surprised and delighted by their experiences, just as I have been."
Tony Rogers, Chief Executive,
BACD (British Association of Conference Destinations)
"We contacted the conference bureau in the early stages of planning and they were involved in helping us prepare the winning bid to bring the event to Norwich.
The bureau also helped us choose accommodation and set up a web page so delegates from all over the world could book directly online. It made a big difference to the organising committee to have such efficient and professional service on hand and was completely free of charge to the group. I would recommend that anyone organising an event in Norfolk make life easier for themselves and go through the Bureau."
Mark Hand, Marketing Manager,
The Forum Trust
"The showaround really was of great value. Whilst we can tour these places on our own, there is so much greater value in having the expertise and advice, particularly on the local experience. One thing is clear to me is that the Norfolk area is certainly one which would be of great interest and value to us in holding our meetings. "
Clive Walters, Event Organiser

"Ginny, Well done! Everything has been excellent; everyone has had a wonderful time. Many thanks to you and all your crew and to all the companies/hotels/businesses that were used, Norfolk and Norwich is a truly professional venue. Please pass on my thanks to all involved, I know Ian will do it officially, as he was in charge, but it was my recommendation to host it in Norwich and you have done them proud."
Rod Tuck, Organiser for the European Pig Producers
International Conference June 2008
"On behalf of the committee, I am writing to thank you and Mel for your help in ensuring that our regional annual dinner in Norwich was such a success. The dinner had not been to Norwich for a number of years and the Bureau's role in suggesting a range of suitable venues, and providing accompanied familiarisation visits to the venues was invaluable. The useful delegate information, assistance with the social programme and arrangements for hotel accommodation really eased the admin burden for the committee."
Paul Dickson,
RSA East of England Organiser.
"I would like to take a moment to thank yourself and Mel for your recent help placing an important event for us. With your understanding of my requirements for sensitivity and your creative ideas for solutions for our (quite specific!) problems, I feel that you have come up with the perfect option for consideration by our senior management.
As with our previous dealings, it has been a pleasure to work with you again."
Anne Joyce,
Head of Events at Moneyfacts
