Working with a number of partner venues - Chigwell Golf Club, West Essex Golf Club and the Woodford Wells Club - I have organised several client nights and showcase events for Abbotts Travel. For each event, I approach a specific supplier or a group of suppliers with a proposal to create an event. A budget and date is agreed and then I work with the venue to design and host the event.

In 2016, Abbotts Travel was encouraged to submit an entry for the Top 50 Travel Agencies awards by Travel Trade Gazette (TTG), the travel industry's premier publication. I suggested that this could be useful to Abbotts Travel in order to raise its profile within the travel industry, as well as exposing the business to a wider audience among the public, trade and supply partners. The awards submission entailed the creation of a detailed document covering background, history,

Abbotts Travel wanted a corporate video to showcase the travel agency to prospective clients on its YouTube channel, as well as forming part of its entry to the 2018 TTG Top 50 Awards. The video is also played at client events and showcases. I was tasked with project managing the production of the video from start to finish. The agency has a great story, history and personality that I felt needed to be captured. I recruited a local videographer, making sure that he understood
