It’s been a busy old time since Big Ben chimed in the New Year!
We hit the ground running during January, supporting two of the leading trade fairs hosted by HIC.

Firstly, we were awarded a new contract by the organisers of the Christmas & Gift Show to provide security, traffic control and stewarding services, which is exceptionally pleasing as this is one of the most well established Fairs on the Harrogate Calendar.

13th-16th January 2008

It is always very satisfying to retain contracts on a long term basis and so we were extremely proud to announce that our tenure of the BIGGA exhibition reached its 6th year. Again, this is a major event, and one of the largest trade shows at Harrogate requiring a substantial number of personnel on site to provide a full range of services including fork lifting, transport, security, traffic control and stewarding.

As the Spring quarter approaches we will be gearing up to provide our full range of services to both new and existing clients:

The Harrogate Nursery Fair is a proven exhibition on the Harrogate calendar and in 2007 increased the number of visitors for the 8th year in a row. Crusade is delighted to be appointed by the Nursery Fair for the first time to provide security, stewarding and traffic control personnel.

Yet another new contract for Crusade is the Tip-ex 2008 show, dedicated to the Tipping industry. The organisers have appointed Crusade to support them with their full range of exhibition support services.

The National Event for Construction, held at the Rockingham Speedway, 13th – 15th May has also renewed its contract with Crusade for the 5th year running.

HIC renews and extends Crusade’s contract

Our contract to supply stewards to all major contracts at the HIC, has been extended yet again. We view this as a particularly significant endorsement from the Harrogate Borough Council and one of which we are justifiably proud.
