Nearly 500 applications & still time to win a £25 Amazon voucher!

Posted on Wednesday, February 5, 2020

Six days after opening up applications and we’re happy to see that nearly 500 applications have come through already! As mentioned in Friday’s post, we’ve globally unapproved all DCSS PAAM profiles to ensure that everyone is starting this festival season with an up to date application form (your profile). This helps us in the long run with regards to accreditation and payroll purposes, but also cuts down the admin time spent chasing these details during peak-periods.

As such, you’ll possibly receive an email or call from the admin team asking you to update something on your profile so that your applications can be accepted straight away in March, when we begin assigning crew into teams.

And for those of you who haven’t yet submitted a pic for the DC photo competition, there’s still time to throw your hat in the ring. You can find the details for the competition here, and the deadline is Friday the 21st February. We’ll be announcing the winner of the competition on Wednesday 26th Feb!

I wanted to write personally to say a huge thank you to you and your brilliant team for all your hard work to enable to deliver, in such a short space of time, a wonderful Royal Windsor Horse Show.

When we started the planning, we honestly had no idea whether we could or could not run and had so many changes it must have made it almost impossible for your team – however as always they adapted and overcame the many hurdles that we presented, with a smile and a complete can do attitude and many people are saying that it was one of the best show’s that they have ever been to.

Everybody I have spoken to has said how fantastic the cleaning was and that the loos were immaculate, and the showground looked as good on the last day as it did on the first day – which is exactly what any organiser strives to achieve. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everything was delivered with a smile. Your cleaners were tremendous once again. Even with the date change and the added bonus (!) of COVID everything was delivered on time.
