Richmond upon Thames Event Hire, Party Hire

Richmond-upon-Thames is about 70 miles from the workshop, A3 round the M25. We're into the TW and KT postcodes through the season for school fairs, community fundraisers, family parties along the river, weddings, and corporate days at the business parks across the borough.

What we run in the borough

July 2026 had us in Twickenham on consecutive days, first for a corporate team-building day and then for a school reward day with the Big Red Assault Course and the football speed cage, and the same pattern holds through the summer term each year. The school event hire and corporate events pages cover both ends of that work, and the borough now has local pages for each side too: corporate event hire in Richmond upon Thames and student event hire Richmond.

Riverside and parkland venues need a hire firm that takes wind monitoring seriously. Every inflatable hire comes with an anemometer and a written procedure: recordings every thirty minutes, mandatory evacuation at 24mph (Force 5), kit shut down. The garden games hire in Richmond upon Thames page covers the range with the riverside terraces and walled gardens in mind.

Site details and the paperwork

The grounds round here are school fields, parkland and riverside gardens, and a few details help us plan. The same practical limits apply as anywhere we work: the van stops within 50 metres of where the kit is set up, the access route is at least 36 inches wide, and every inflatable runs off its own 13A socket within 20 metres. Parking for the van is the hirer's job, and if the nearest power point is a long way from the kit we bring a generator along. For a riverside site we'll also check the forecast before the day and say straight if the wind will be too much.

The compliance side is settled for any venue that asks. The insurance is £10 million public liability with the licensed-premises cover on top, the inflatables are PIPA tagged and re-inspected each year by our in-house RPII inspector, the electrical kit is PAT tested, and the risk assessment and method statement are sent out with the booking. Our own people run the events, holding the RPII operator and supervisor exams, first-aid and enhanced DBS checks, and outdoor inflatables travel with an anemometer and the written 24mph rule.

Hounslow sits just to the north with its own page, Wandsworth is the next borough along the river, and the London page covers the rest of the city.
