St Georges Day Dinner
"Our event really went well and we were very pleased with the venue. Can you also pass on our thanks to the kitchen team, the food was lovely! Many thanks for your help and I am sure will be in touch to arrange future meetings." - NHS Essex Cancer Network : "I'd just like to say thanks very much for your help with hiring a room at the college. We had an absolutely wonderful day, gorgeous sunshine and we spent most of our time outside. It was better than I could have imagined. The organisation could not have been easier and I am grateful for your all of your help. I will certainly be in touch if I get a request for such a day in the future." - NLP Coaching : "The dinner was very successful and I had lots of positive comments afterwards. Please thank the staff for me."
