Our Client Reviews

The Richard Clarke First School

I highly recommend the conference facility at Uttoxeter Racecourse based on our recent experience hosting a conference for the Uttoxeter Learning Trust on January 8th. The racecourse proved to be a brilliant local venue, offering the perfect environment for our event, which gathered nearly 300 delegates. Throughout the conference, we were exceptionally well taken care of by the attentive and professional staff. The refreshments, including an amazing brunch, were a highlight, providing a delightful culinary experience for all attendees.

The coordination of the entire event by Chloe Whiston was nothing short of brilliant, and the seamless execution of the day made the entire experience very slick. The feedback from our school staff was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing appreciation for the opportunity to step out of the school environment and gather as a multi-academy trust. Uttoxeter Racecourse proved to be a superb choice for our conference, and we look forward to the possibility of hosting future events at this exceptional facility.

Erasmus Darwin Academy

Uttoxeter are more than just a venue for us. The events team works closely with our Academy to ensure that our Y11 students have an enjoyable night and make last memories celebrating the end of their school years. Their events team is both proactive and responsive, providing valuable advice and guidance that helps make the evening such a memorable night. The personal service they have provided for us over the years has been outstanding and we value the relationship we have with Uttoxeter and come back year after year for our Y11 Prom 😊

The Cress Company

I want to thank you and all the team at Uttoxeter for helping to make the day a great success. The Cress team, our suppliers and our customers all thought the venue and service was excellent!

Mike, finding me a loader to use to bring our stock in (which saved my back) Debbie serving the refreshments and rolls, the room was set up perfectly and looked great. The voucher system worked so well

We were well looked after, and your team kept checking if we needed anything throughout the day.

John, UWCB

Thank you for sorting out our event at Uttoxeter!

All your staff were absolutely outstanding from site visit, to event delivery and a pleasure to deal with!
