Testimonials

I’ve now known Pete Pinnington for two years, both in my current capacity as Managing Director of Network Warrington and in my previous role as Head of Operations at ARRIVA North West.

Pete presents the Annual Awards Ceremony for Network Warrington, and through WIRE FM, we have recently used him in a marketing campaign to launch our new Solo low floor buses. Pete made the day, he has a bubbly and enthusiastic personality and does a great job of building up the hype for the event. He is as ever the professional, whether reading out the weather or dealing with hecklers, nothing phases him, his sheer professionalism is hard to beat, he can make any product, no matter how ordinary it may seem, sound interesting. Pete has the ability to think on his feet and get a laugh, and has a genuine warmth which comes out not only when you meet him, but also when you hear him on the radio, in short a top bloke and a true gentleman.

We recently asked 'Pete Pinnington Presents' to host our annual student showcase which was held at The Parr Hall in Warrington and we have to say that the professionalism he presented the show with was outstanding !
 
Pete Pinnington's pre-show planning and attention to detail about our Academy and show performances was brilliant. The night was jam packed full of performances from StagePro Academy students aged between 3 and 30 and there was a special appearance from 2012 X-Factor finalist Bradley Johnson.
 
Although writing this only a day after the show, we have already had loads of response regarding Pete and we would not hesitate to engage his services for the next event which we plan for Summer 2012.
 
I would also like to say a big thank you to Pete for last night but also for the amazing comments he made on his Wire FM radio show. These kind words mean a lot to the students who performed on the night and very much appreciated by everyone involved at StagePro Academy !

 "We recently secured Pete Pinnington Presents to provide the speakers, sound & technical requirements for one of our major rugby league international games and were delighted with the professional service they provided. Events such as major international sports encounters require a high level of efficiency, professionalism and technical competency and the company delivered in all cases. We will certainly be using the company again in the future and would be happy to recommend their services.

On Saturday 23rd July, 2011, The Maria Watt Foundation and Be Child Cancer Aware charities held our first Children of Courage Awards and Summer Ball in Birmingham.

We knew that the night would need a massive amount of co-ordination – after all, its not easy working with children! We enlisted Pete’s help and he did a fantastic job in ensuring that the event ran smoothly.

Working with children is not the easiest of tasks but Pete pulled it off beautifully and made the night so special for our children receiving their awards.

We’d like to thank Pete for helping us to host a fabulous evening which our guests thoroughly enjoyed!

I am writing to thank you for the very professional manner in which you handled all the arrangements for the Ball on 2nd July 2011.  

“Pete produced spectacular results at our inaugural Sanctuary for Veterans Summer Ball on 2 July. I’ve spent many years in the entertainment world as a DJ, compare and Club owner so I understand the challenges faced during an organised event where everything has to run smoothly and to schedule.

Even if you don't share my experience of the entertainment profession, Pete will skillfully guide you through the proceedings with a pre event meeting at the chosen venue to agree timings i.e. meal, auction/raffle, music etc. In fact all the elements of the planned evening.

Pete isn't just a DJ. He is a showman. There are many out there who can spin some sounds with the use of an MP3 player (sadly gone are the days of vinyl). However, there are not many who can command an audience and effectively compare a whole evening as professionally as Pete can and I have no hesitation in recommending him. He is a star.”

We booked Pete to present our company Annual awards evening, although the actual presenting part was only one element of the fantastic service that Pete offered, his attention to detail and meticulous planning prior to the awards showed the consummate professional that he is. The awards themselves flowed with style, humour and complete control which can’t have been easy as we had a full house. The evening was a complete success thanks in no small part to Pete. We would highly recommend Pete to any function and we wouldn’t hesitate to use him again in the future.

"We engaged the services of 'Pete Pinnington Presents' for our Adult Learners' Week Awards Celebration held yesterday at the Halliwell Jones Stadium.  The event went exceptionally well which was very much due to the professionalism, resourcefulness and good humour of Pete Pinnington.  Pete not only provided his incomparable compering skills but also the sound and visual facilities which made the event very special for all the participants.  We will definitely be asking Pete to work with us again next year."

Thank you for the wonderful job you did at the finals of Miss Galaxy-UK and Miss Teen Galaxy-UK 2010. Your expertise in comparing, along with your quick thinking and humour, certainly enhanced and ensured the smooth running of the evenings.

It was a pleasure working with you and we look forward to working with you in the future.
 
Thank you again for a job well done.

Pete Pinnington hosted our 'St George's Day Charity Ball' this year and also organised a super-talented young Jazz singer for the evening's entertainment which suited the occasion brilliantly!

"Pete's help from the outset in terms of planning together with his contacts and experience proved invaluable and his efforts on the night with the auction played a vital part in us raising the amount that we did - thanks Pete".

"Pete hosted the second of our Business and Tourism Awards and was a huge hit with both the audience and the organisers.  Pete joined us at the planning stage which we found invaluable, not only for the smooth running of the awards, which was seamless, but also because Pete really got to know us and the event and managed to adapt both his presentation style and content to make the evening exactly what we were looking for.  Pete also provided a great disco at the end of the night. We have received only positive feedback regarding Pete’s involvement and we look forward to the opportunity of working with him again in the near future."

"Pete has been associated with Birchwood Shopping Centre for many years, and has become synonymous with live events held in the Centre, to the extent that when an event is planned securing Pete's services has been the first priority. He is without doubt a top quality presenter and compere, who is loved by our shoppers, he interacts seamlessly with his audience and is extremely professional and organised in every way. A real down to earth and friendly guy, who is a real pleasure to work with and be associated with, and I would not hesitate at all in recommending Pete's services. "

"Pete Pinnington what can I say - an everlasting cheery bloke for whom nothing is too much trouble. A lot of work goes into our event planning, so we always ensure Pete is booked to host, since we know he will entertain the crowds on a professional level and assist in making the event another huge success for Halton Borough Council."

"Pete hosted the Miss Warrington Town event for me and he was absolutely fantastic! Pete kept the audience engaged and entertained throughout the evening and I have only praise for his hosting. The event was in aid of the charity, The Joshua Foundation, and the total amount raised was over £3000. Pete encouraged the audience to be generous as it was for such a great cause and the guests responded fantastically. I would recommend Pete for any event as he is a true professional."

"Having worked with Pete Pinnington for many years, I can honestly say it is always a pleasure. Pete is an honest, reliable and trustworthy guy who is an expert in his field of work. Pete is willing to assist from the planning through to the co-ordination and execution of any event with total commitment and dedication."

"He can always be relied upon to provide knowledgeable advice and guidance to a wide variety of clients through his wealth of experience in the field of presenting. Pete has assisted the Shopping Centre in various projects from straight forward competitions to more challenging projects like fashion shows and charity events. If any company is contemplating utilising Pete in the future, he comes with my highest recommendation."

"Colin and I have known Pete for 9 years, not only in his capacity as a Radio Presenter on WIRE FM, but also as an MC for many of our charity's fundraising events. Which ever role Pete is performing, he always does so with humour, energy and creativity. He is a naturally gifted communicator whose personality is well suited to his chosen career."

"I've known Pete for nearly 10 years now and love how well he engages with the public. Pete is loved by all our market traders & shoppers and always entertains with total professionalism & fun! Over the years Pete has presented his radio show live from our market and is willing to do whatever it takes to grab our shoppers attention. On one occasion, he even dressed up as an Easter Bunny to help with our 'Easter Egg Appeal'."

"Pete has also hosted numerous events in & outside Warrington Market and helped get our promotions across to the general public extremely well. Pete is loved so much by our traders that he's seen as one of the family. To prove this, we've got Pete featured in one of our TV campaigns on Channel M & Granada. Whenever we have events planned, it's vital to us that we secure Pete's services. He's brilliant and comes very highly recommended by myself & traders within Warrington Market! I believe Pete's efforts to help promote the market contributed to us becoming officially the 'Best Indoor Market In Great Britain'!"

"We first had the privilege of meeting Pete at an Awards ceremony he was hosting in 2004, it was the beginning of a lovely friendship. Pete showed an interest in our Charity 'The Shannon Bradshaw Trust' and was only too happy to help and support us, nothing was ever too much trouble. Soon after, Pete joined our Charity as a Patron and has proved to be a valuable member by raising our profile and awareness through his radio show on Wire F.M and at the same time encouraging Wire FM to assist with our cause. Pete has hosted many of our events and has proved beyond doubt to be a true professional and always Over Delivers."
