BACK TO TOP
Events Co-ordinator, ASDA, CORBY
May I take this opportunity in thanking you and all involved for the help you gave me in
making this a big and what I think will be a fantastic event for Children In Need 2008. So
far we have raised six thousand pounds and the money is still coming in. All the feed back
I have had from both customers and managers was fantastic. I have customers saying to
me we should have you here permantely.
Sport and Recreation Officer, Corby District Council, CORBY
I would whole heartedly support that ‘Stevens FunFair’ in its fifty year history of visiting Corby
has been an ambassador for the Showman’s Guild. In all respects a good neighbour, aware of
the difficulties both of ground maintenance staff and local residents, the management of the fair
have always treated this as a priority. The community appreciates the visit of the Fair especially
the free special needs session held for school children. All the Fair people ensure the children
are well catered for and get an opportunity to go on rides they would not be able to access
during normal public sessions.
Chesham Town Clerk & Councillor, Chesham Town Council, CHESHAM
I am pleased to say that Stevens Amusements were a pleasure to work with. The fees were
paid promptly in advance and all correct paperwork was provided for inspection. During the first
week-end, a couple of local residents complained about the level of noise but this was quickly
rectified by Mrs Stevens to such a degree that both residents later thanked the Council for a
peaceful second week-end. At the end of the fair, the operators departed promptly and left the
site in a clean and tidy state. Perhaps most importantly however, the Council actually received
compliments rather than complaints in respect of the fair. We received letters and phone-calls
congratulating the Council both on the vibrancy and variety of the fair and on the courtesy of
the operators themselves. This made a
Support Officer, Chelmsford Borough Council, CHELMSFORD
I am pleased to confirm that ‘Stevens Fun-Fair’ have visited Central Park, Chelmsford for many
years and have always provided a satisfactory funfair. AU fees have always been paid on time
and any problem however small has been dealt with promptly. I have never encountered any
Health and Safety Issue. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to you.
Councillor, Adur District Council, SOUTH WICK
I have been asked by several residents to express their thanks to you and your colleagues
for this year’s fair. Whilst a few may complain you should be assured that many residents
enjoy the ‘traditional’ fair, long may you continue.
Marketing and Information Officer, Worthing Leisure, Worthing
Borough Council, WORTHING
Stevens Fun-Fair have operated annually on the seafront at Worthing for many years and
over this period the operation has been most professionally organised and we have had
no cause for complaint. Everyone is most co-operative in all ways and the running of the
Fair is an extremely disciplined manner, building up and breaking down the rides is done
quickly and quietly with the minimum of noise and disruption. The rides and stalls are
varied and are extremely popular in Worthing and would have no hesitation in
recommending you.
Chairman, Rotary Fair Committee, WORTHING
Just a note to thank you for all your help and support for the Rotary Fair. We cantruly say
that we gave the town an event we can be proud of, and the finances are looking promising
too! But it’s only by really professional and committed efforts that an event like this comes
together. I’m so pleased that everything and everyone gave their best and made the week-
end a real success. Once again, I’d like to say a big Thank You on behalf of the Rotary in
Worthing

Mary Butcher, mayoress of Corby, was talking to me about your funfair and advised me to get in touch.
I'm a photographer and author working on a book about Corby as it is now. My images have appeared
in art exhibitions internationally for the past ten years. From what I can gather, the fair has become an
integral, essential party of Corby's calender, and I think it is really important to give it a strong and
positive profile in the book. I very much hope you think I might be able to contribute positively to
your fair in Corby at Spring and during the Highland event.
