Congratulations to you and the team on a superb Lab Show today (I was very impressed with the high attendance and positive atmosphere) and thank you for a brilliant evening yesterday; fantastic entertainment and great company." David Browning, Managing Director - BioCity

It's quite incredible that you coordinate all of that without an external events company, the SLS family spirit really comes through in the show which I do think makes you quite unique. Helen - Science Warehouse

I just wanted to thank you for inviting me to the event – I got a lot out of it and was very pleased to have attended. It seemed to be very successful and I would like to make a note of the high quality / calibre of the speakers. Zoe Jones, Category Manager - University of Leeds.

I think it was a really good day I am going to write a brief report for my SD here and also for Kelly Vere. The coach was really comfortable and the driver knows his route and minor roads. See you next time round. Peter Beaman (Human Psychology) BSc MBPsS FHEA
