Shirley and her talented team have always, without exception, given us the best possible service. They are professional, efficient, friendly and so reliable I trust them implicitly and they have helped us to build a glowing reputation for our events. Each year we put on a busy diary of events and 2013 will be no exception. From informal business lunches and breakfast briefings to our prestigious annual conference, I can always rely on Shirley and the team to get it just right. Sally Lynskey, CEO, Business Solent, Various Events 2012 Shirley and the team at Destination Southampton are a huge help and support to Exhibition Organisers such as myself. From finding venues for my exhibition dinner, cocktail party and accommodation for all our staff and visitors, they also provide invaluable help on the day and ensure that everything runs perfectly.

Thanks for all your hard work Seawork would not be such a success without you. Fay Reeve, Exhibition Operations Manager, Seawork International, June 2012 Wow! What a fantastic job you, your team and, of course, the Fund Raising Committee did in putting together such a brilliant night of entertainment on Saturday at the annual Rose Road Crystal Ball - Each and everyone of you deserves an Oscar!! Everything was just so professional, slick and glitzy...true Hollywood style. From the food, raffle, auction and the fabulous live band I just could not fault with anything during the whole evening and early morning! All the long hours and hard work that was most clearly put into this event will be so worth it by the many thousands of pounds raised to benefit the children, young people and their families who use Rose Road. Everyone involved in organising the Crystal Ball should be justly proud of themselves and will have enhanced the ever growing positive reputation of the Association. I can t wait for the 2011 Crystal Ball... Con Attridge, Chair of Trustees, The Rose Road Association, November 2010 The team at Destination Southampton played an important part in our decision to bring the British Titanic Society Annual Conference back to Southampton. Shirley and her team worked hard to assist us in obtaining good rates at a waterfront hotel with first rate facilities and they extended their service to include provision of visitors guides and maps of Southampton. They supported our Society by facilitating access to the Port area, coach arrangements, a Civic Reception at the Mayor s Parlour and much more. Their unfailing courtesy, pleasant working manner and constant willingness to help in any way possible made the task of organising the Convention that much more pleasant and effective. We would not hesitate to recommend their services and the city of Southampton to other conference organisers.
