Business Tourism And Conference Bureau

Do you have the headache of organising your company's next team building day, management or directors' away day? Or perhaps it's a conference for international delegates? Whatever the event, it's a big responsibility...

There's the transport and accommodation to book for a start. Are you getting the best deal? Do you know where to start? How far is the conference centre from the accommodation? How many rooms does the hotel have?

So many questions. So many details to sort out. So easy to get it all wrong. And it all takes time.

We have all the answers! Give us the problem and let us find the solution. Then you can tell your boss you have it sorted! Everyone will be impressed with your ability to 'get things done' and when you next negotiate a salary increase they'll be begging you to stay!

Time For Greenwich, in association with our network of proven agents and businesses, will deliver the perfect destination for your next business event, allowing your delegates to turn up and concentrate on the business to hand.

You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by calling Malcolm Godfrey on 07739 462156 (mobile) for some friendly, helpful advice.
