Hi Jayne - just wanted to say a HUGE thanks for all your help - the conference was a resounding success - see photos and feedback on the booking site www.tasoutheastconference.co.uk
 
there were a few little hiccups but nothing we couldn't deal with - i think we might need to re think teas/coffees and lunch for the next one!!!
 
warm wishes

Leilani Mitchel

Dear Claire,

Thank you and all your colleagues for your help and support which meant that yesterdays conference was a great success.
 
Please pass on my thanks to all concerned, particularly Barry your duty manager and Steve with all the technical support.  Their efforts were greatly appreciated and everyone at Salomons was extremely helpful.
 
From a professional point of view the conference achieved its objectives and we received very good feedback.  This was helped by the fact that so many of the delegates commented on the quality of the venue and the great organisation allowed us to get on and keep to our programme, which always helps.
 
Because the RIBA regions are fairly large we have to move our major events around to different venues each time otherwise we get crititised for the distance members have to travel.  It may, therefore, be a little while before we bring an event back to Tunbridge Wells, but if we do I will certainly recommend we come again to Salomons.
 
Thank you all once again.
 
Kind Regards
 
Jeremy

Claire, I am sorry that you weren't in the office when I rang just now so that I could thank you personally for your help and assistance in making our conference go so well yesterday. The venue was a great success and your gardens and surroundings looked magnificent in the sunshine. The food went down well and the chocolate cake at lunchtime was a particular hit!

All the participants were very complimentary about the centre and they very much enjoyed the added bonus of looking at the museum between the conference end and dinner - thank you to your reception team for so readily agreeing to keep it open for an additional hour to enable this to happen.

As conference organiser I found you, Barry and your team very helpful and responsive to the few minor things that inevitably came up on the day.

If we had a similar occasion in future I would have no hesitation in using you again.

Please pass on my thanks to your colleagues.

With kind regards
