TESTIMONIALS Leicester Royal Infirmary (EDU) - I just wanted to drop you a line on behalf of myself and my EDU colleagues to say what a fabulous night we all had on Saturday. Everything was perfect, food, the band, the staff - perfect!! Please pass on our thanks to all of the events team.

Argos – We had a super night, thank you.

University of Leicester - I just wanted to let you know how much my work colleagues and I enjoyed the Christmas party on Saturday night at the Space Centre. It was a really well put together event, the food was really good, the band was amazing, the added touch of the storm troopers was great, they were only too willing to have selfies with people! It was great to have the tables around the actual exhibits themselves. We will definitely be back another year.

First Leicester – The staff were brilliant in looking after us all night. Well done and thank you.

Topsham House - On the night we all had an amazing time, I could not fault it. The atmosphere was fantastic, food was lovely, staff were friendly and helpful and the band was just superb.

Will be recommending to others. Many thanks for a great party.

Boots - A great night was had by everyone in our group, the band was amazing and it was an added bonus to meet to meet Darth Vader and his storm troopers! Thanks to all your team for giving us a night to remember!
