Event Supplier and Services Association
ESSA Testimonials
On joining the Association...
“We have been in business for over eighteen years and in the last five or six years have really started to develop the business into a professional solutions provider for end users as well as agencies. Not only did we feel we would benefit from the kudos of joining ESSA but with the current climate we also felt our customers would feel more relaxed knowing they had the security of the bond.”
Paul Gristwood, Aspect Exhibitions
“More and more potential clients were asking if Extreme were members of ESSA. In fact some made it a mandatory to be able to tender.
With the present economic climate and companies wanting to feel secure in their decisions it makes sense to choose a company that has been checked and has the underlying insurance of a large association.”
Steve Thorne, Extreme Exhibitions Limited
"Genesis have become members of ESSA to benefit from the status of becoming an 'approved supplier' within the industry. ESSA are a modern and professional association, which we are very proud to be a part of."
David Williams, Genesis 3D Design Limited

On the ESSA AGM...
“Just a short note to pass on my thanks to you all for hosting what was an informative and professional meeting. The openness of the “questions and answers” session was fantastic and is hopefully the way forward to both identify and address any member issues in these difficult times. I truly feel that ESSA is an association with a genuine commitment to its members.”
Denis Quinn, Clements & Street Design & Build Limited.
“Being new to the Association, the AGM provided a great opportunity to make contact with members actively involved in shaping the industry and to hear debated the issues that matter to them.”
Tom Wilcockson, Big Yellow Group Plc.
“What a great AGM! Given the current climate I imagine it was easy for many, including myself, to not attend. Taking an afternoon or longer out of your business is a tough call. So turning up and seeing so many heads was a welcome surprise. And what great networking! By far the greatest element of any trade association is the people. It was really encouraging to hear that our own business was not experiencing challenges alone and was certainly helpful to share ideas on how we can combat the next few months. I certainly left feeling that our positioning statement was true, Together we ARE stronger! Thanks again Chris for all you do. Really appreciated.”
Matt Sims, Revelation (Event Management) Limited.
“Its my second AGM and the event far exceeded my expectations in terms of the number and seniority of members in attendance, the quality of networking and the fact that ESSA had turned an AGM into an insightful event to hear of the great work being done on our behalves!”
Andre Berry, Showstars.

On using Towergate Coverex (formerly known as Woodgates and Partners)...
“When I joined 2 Heads 12 years ago, there was already a well established working relationship with Woodgates and Partners, and this has continued. Financially, the costs for the policies are very competitive, and more so since our membership with ESSA. As Woodgates are closely associated with the Events industry they understand our business and can provide appropriate, expert advice.”
Pat Sanderson, 2 Heads Global Design Limited.
