Happy New Year

Martin Ruff

 

Wishing you a Happy New Year, from our Team to yours.

I should have know when our first event of 2020 looked like this, that we were not going to have a fun year.


Although we are in the worst stage of the COVID pandemic, our spirits are high for the 2021 season. We have managed to get this far and the company is in a good position to proceed for the next year. With the mass roll out of vaccines, and adapting events, we are hoping to have something closer to a normal summer.


Many of our clients for both the bouncy castles and the stage hire and production business have expressed interest in proceeding with events for the summer, and the bookings are starting to come in. 


We have measure in place to ensure the safety of our team and the public for the events we attend, and managed to provide a safe service for the few clients we had this last year.


I would just like to wish you all a very Happy New Year and we hope to see you very soon.


Martin and the team
