Throwback Thursday to Reading, thank you staff and upcoming work!

Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2020

For those of you who are DC veterans you will know Dick and Janet, two of DC Site Services’ Directors who were here from the very beginning and established the Company in 1993. Dick and Janet first became involved in the Events & Festival scene back in the 60s, which resulted in them joining Reading festival’s ‘training school’ and have since then, in one way or another been involved with this iconic festival.

This festival season will mark the first time in FOURTY SEVEN YEARS that they have sadly not been involved with Reading due to COVID. We’re sure you’ll be back there next year!

We’d also like to take a moment to say a quick thank you to the staff who worked VJ Day, we received wonderful feedback from the client, thanking the team for “going above and beyond under difficult circumstances.” Well done crew.

In addition to this, we’re pleased to recruit for an upcoming event in September, the Battle of Britain Air Show! This takes place 18th – 20th September and is located in Duxford, Cambridge. If you’re local and would like to join the team, please log into your DCSS PAAM profile today to apply!

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.
