“ Thank you for all your help with our recent drinks reception at the Scottish National Gallery. It was great working with the National Galleries team both in the lead up to the event and on the day; everyone was so helpful. The entire team did a brilliant job of helping us to ensure that our event went smoothly, and all our guests commented how much they had enjoyed what was a very special and memorable evening.”
