DOG'S SET TO EXPAND THE TEAM!
BKS Events is expanding its Events Team from February 2012. 2 general purpose dogs will be assisting our Night Security Teams. Both dog's will join our dog section after completing their training with our training partners Surrey Police.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE YELLOW BUS?
Our Event tour is fully functional and can be seen travelling up and down the motorways. The BKS Events Tour bus was purchased to assist with the Event Team travel and accommodation whilst away on events. The bus has 14 fitted bunks, fully functional shower and kitchen and if that wasn't good enough we even have 2 TV's and a PlayStation to keep us entertained on the longer journeys! Even the Dog's love it with their 2 stowaway kennels.
