Express Printing sales director Darren Hunter said: “Our business with Butlin’s is going from strength to strength but we still want to see if we can do any more.” Stephanie Wilkins and her mother, Julia Wilkins, wanted to introduce their Westergate-based business, Time For You domestic cleaners.

Stephanie said: “It’s hard nowadays to find cleaners you can trust and we are a company that’s not too big and is also local.”

Firms could talk to six senior managers at Butlin’s.
