A ball to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Dublcheck was hosted by founder and chairman Carol Stewart-Gill at Chester Racecourse.

Over 120 guests enjoyed a champagne reception, dinner and entertainment. Dublcheck, one of the fastest growing franchises in the UK is a commercial cleaning company. The party recognised the achievements of many of its franchisees.

Guests were treated to a dazzling performance from world modern jive dance champions and franchisee owners Hazel Surguy-Price and John Lloyd. An outstanding performance by acoustic reggae and Latino-style band, Duncan Disorderly and The Scallywags brought everyone onto the dance floor and got the evening into full swing.

Speaking about the Chester-based company she founded in 1993, Carol Stewart-Gill said: ‘It is fabulous to be sharing the achievements of this wonderful organisation with our franchisees. Success only comes with hard work, grit and determination, and this evening demonstrates the commitment of our franchisees and dedicated head office team.’

Dublcheck’s ex-franchisee and master of ceremonies, Graham Hey, co-presented the awards with Carol.
