Set up and clear up
General set-ups support the day before, or the morning of an event, and/or clear after evening finish or next morning. We know things can be a little hectic on the day before an event - or sometimes you just can't be there in person yourself.
We come as a pair and can turn a hand to any type of set up, or clearing of a venue after an event. We can happily come in early the next morning to lend a helping hand with the packing up and/or returning of items.
Set up
We come in to help get things done - we discuss your requirements beforehand, either by phone, email or meeting, and can even use pictures of your table layout or decorations to ensure that it is exactly as planned if you are not there.
Cost: Up to a maximum of 6 hours support is £385*
Clear up after the event.
It’s always faster to clear up, but harder if it’s 9am after a party the night before! We can help you take care of all the bits and pieces and repack everything securely ready to take away.
Cost: Up to a maximum of 4 hrs is £285*
Small event coordination
Helping hands with smaller event: birthday parties, funerals & private dining
Sometimes all you need is a couple of extra people to help run things, leaving you to enjoy the event with your guests. We can come in and keep things ticking over for you, looking after everyone and clearing and tidying as we go along.
Cost: £75* per hour

All prices are exclusive of travel costs - if applicable
We are unable to decorate at height with bunting/fairy lights/draping
After discussion with clients, we will advise whether any additional staff are required before the booking is confirmed, this will be charged at £25 per hour for each member of staff.
