United, Dorset’s leading taxi firm, have pledged their commitment to the county’s premier football club by offering all Cherries season ticket holders a 10% discount on their journey, whilst displaying the A3 graphics on the side of their vehicles.

“We are delighted to be involved with our local football club,” said Derek Heritage, marketing director of United Taxis.

“A lot of our drivers are AFC Bournemouth supporters and they are absolutely over the moon to see the Cherries players on the side of our cars. We already have had a lot of feedback from customers and it really is a positive story.

“As a taxi firm we are thriving, so to be involved with a club on its way up is fantastic and hopefully we will be associated with a club in the Championship next season.”

AFC Bournemouth commercial director said, “We are thrilled to have the support of one of the most recognisable taxi firms in Dorset.

“At AFC Bournemouth, we are committed to bringing the best value for money to our supporters and I really hope they can get the most out of this relationship.”

To claim your 10% discount, just show your season ticket card to the driver, sit back and enjoy the journey.

The company is also delighted to announce that they are about to launch a unique new payment system to the area being the United Taxis Pre-Pay Card. This clever initiative will mean that customers can store credit on a plastic card much like a pre-paid store card. In particular students who might be low on cash can have the peace of mind as can their parents that they can always get a taxi without having to worry about finding the actual money. This will also prove useful for customers if they need to make a sometimes costly detour to an ATM.

Derek added: ‘Despite these worrying economic times it is really pleasing that we’ve been able to take on extra staff which in turn is down to our ever increasing customer base, the loyalty that we have been shown over the years means we have been able to expand.’ For further details call 01202 556677

RUBICON PEOPLE CELEBRATE 30 YEARS
Whilst there is much to concern us such as the economic down turn, weather conditions that we have been reliably informed could continue for the next 20 years and statistics showing that we are all working harder than ever, Rubicon People, Dorset’s leading recruitment specialist have much to celebrate. For a business to be reflecting on 30 years of trading is a bit of a milestone and one worth shouting about.

To kick start the celebrations the team chose the beach at Sandbanks to enjoy their birthday along with specially invited guests and clients. Football, rounders and even the odd swimmer took to the sands to help Rubicon

Taking Mohammed’s lead (by going to the mountain rather than waiting for the mountain to come to him) Rubicon People replaced an expensive and static branch office network with this practical, fun and extremely candidate-friendly recruitment tool. Commercial Director, Jessica Jones said: ‘Considering the economic climate when money is tight for a lot of job hunters, it makes sound sense to deliver our registration services to candidates’ doorsteps particularly if they live away from the main towns, saving them time and travel expenses in getting to their nearest recruitment centre. It’s a convenient, innovative way of bringing opportunities to those who might otherwise miss out, and it enables our Recruitment Consultants to call in on clients often after the perfect candidate has just been registered. A large number of our clients are in far flung parts of the county and the “Recruitment Wagon” serves both of these purposes perfectly.’

As far as Rubicon People know, their initiative, of taking a recruitment office out on the road, remains unique for a recruitment agency; “The Wagon” is instantly recognizable with its bold purple and yellow livery and has generated a significant amount of interest with the added benefits of driving traffic to the company’s website, where job vacancies are refreshed daily. Furthermore there has been a marked increase in candidate registration and client enquiries from these inner hinterlands that, in turn, has increased the jobs they have to fill and the choice of candidates to fill those jobs – so everyone wins.

Jessica added: ‘We also use this unique service for targeted client recruitment campaigns and it has provided a significant difference having this versatile tool at our disposal especially as many of the more rurally based clients have previously had to rely on candidates being registered and submitted by agencies from some way away. We have some quite high-profile clients in North Dorset as well as various other parts of the county and we are often spotted at festivals and shows around the county and were recently involved with Party in the Park at Ashley Cross where we were thrilled with the amount of enquiries we received based on the Wagon’s prominence there.’

With just two short months until Party in the Park 2012 in association with Humphries Kirk, event organisers JJ PR & Events held an official ticket launch on the eve of the Summer Solstice. Sponsors and supporters along with representatives from this year’s award winning charity Julia’s House were in attendance. Jane Jones, Event Organiser commented: “Prior to a reception on the roof terrace at The Cow, we gathered at the stone circle on Ashley Cross Green in order to connect with the longest day of summer. We wanted to celebrate the solstice and its history and so released the tickets of our 12^th Party in the Park to the public at dawn this Thursday.”

Richard Cossey, Marketing Manager of Humphries Kirk said: “We are delighted to be supporting the Ashley Cross Party in the Park for another year as the main sponsor. The event is always so full of energy and there is always a great mix of exhibitors and of course awesome bands, which make the day so much fun for the families that attend. The launch event was a fantastic celebration of all the local companies who offer their time and support to this event and such a worthwhile charity.”

Tickets are now available to purchase for £3 per adult with children under 12’s gaining entry for free. They are available around the Ashley Cross area from sponsors: Humphries Kirk; Frost & Co; Martin & Co and The Cow; as well as local eateries Le Bateau and Patrick’s.
