Stansted exhibition off to a flying start - attracting companies to showcase their brands

Thursday 18th June 2015 will welcome back Check-in @ Stansted, a business, travel and careers event brought to you by the Stansted Airport Chamber of Commerce and The Sowerby Group Limited.

The journey will begin at 10 am at the Diamond Hangar, London Stansted within the hangar itself, surrounded by executive jets flown in from around the world. With the capacity for 62 companies to exhibit plus sponsors, this is a superb opportunity to jump onboard, promote your brand, seize new business opportunities, network with people, meet potential employees and much more!

There are two Exhibitor Packages available, for more information visit the website www.check-in-stansted.com, or contact Julie Budden. Companies also have the opportunity to advertise within the show guide and again full details can be found online.

Latest exhibitors signed up include Hills Toyota (for the 2nd year running), The British Sausage Company, Harrods Aviation (also returning for the 2nd year), uComply, Eye Airports, Aerofloor and Harlow Enterprise Zone to name but a few.

Kim-Marie Freeston from uComply is one of the latest signs ups. She said "In today's world, illegal immigration and identity fraud is rife. And for businesses, it's easy to make costly mistakes. At uComply, we're here to help protect businesses from costly fines and when we heard of the Check-in @ Stansted event, it just seemed right for our business. We cannot wait to exhibit and look forward to showing companies just how we can reduce immigration risk within the workplace. Come and visit us on the day".

The Dream Factory will also begin their journey with us at Check-in @ Stansted this year as the nominated charity.

Founded by Avril Mills who lost her son Oliver to Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia in 1999, at the age of 9, The Dream Factory grants dreams for children and young people aged 3 – 25 years with life threatening and life limiting conditions, or those with severe disabilities.

Since the charity started in 2008, it has granted over 300 dreams. This could be anything from an iPad, laptop, TV, garden and room makeovers, helicopter rides, meet and greet famous people and family holidays of a lifetime.

Run mainly by volunteers, money raised mainly goes towards helping make dreams come true. Currently The Dream Factory has a waiting list of 70 dreams and the organisers are hoping to help raise as much money as possible to make these dreams come true.

Nicola Wisbey, Director of Marketing for The Sowerby Group Limited said

“Check-in @ Stansted is committed to corporate social responsibility. Last year we supported the Essex Air Ambulance and this year, we wanted to support a charity where travel could help make a difference. Finding The Dream Factory, a charity that is extremely appreciative of any extra support – we just felt that it was right. We’ll be running a blind auction to help raise vital funds and hopefully make more dreams come true for those on the waiting list.

If your company can spread a little magic and donate a worthy prize to auction, please email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.”.
