Me and my wife would like to thank all the trainers for attending the tacca training day yesterday. I hope you got just as much out of the day as what you gave. I think the day was a huge success and without the fantastic trainers it would not of been possible. A special thank you to Dave Altomstone who gave his time for no gain what so ever. Dave you're a star. And an extra special thanks for Julie Chemspec Roberts . Inspiring is all I can say. Julie had a kidney transplant 6 weeks ago and was determined to still train at the tacca day . And for all those that travelled from all over the uk. I cant thank you enough. Really hope you came away with something that will drive your businesses to a whole new level. And finally a massive pat on the back to everyone who contributed to the short notice raffle. Just over £1900 was raised for julies charity of choice all on one day. and the hog roast? OMG.  proud to be part of this great industry

And thank you Derek and Sian for organizing such a memorable event which not even the rain could manage to throw a spanner in the works.

Fantastic news on the amount raised on the raffle as well.

Great to see old friends and to make new ones. I'm sure lots of business was written and people inspired to do new things or work harder on existing plans/systems as well if the decisions Andrew and I made are replicated across all those who attended.

Thanks again.

We all managed to raise just over £1900 for Julie Roberts (chemspec) charity of choice. Julie who was one of the trainers on the day had just had a kidney transplant, (6 weeks ago) and so last minute we decided to hold a raffle on the day to see if we could raise some money to say thank you for making the effort of coming to the day, Julie said, “nothing was going to stop me from coming to this event” a real inspiration to us all and managed to stay and train our attendees on colour dye application to carpets and fabrics. , all the trainers rallied together and some attendees  to give prizes for the raffle and my wife went out into the battlefield and sold an amazing amount of tickets in just a short time.
