 3) Please check your FREE listing on the 2 websites.

One of the benefits of being a BIHA member is that you are entitled to a FREE listing of your business on two different websites

which promote UK inflatable hire businesses by county. (and also alphabetically).

These two websites are:

www.biha.org.uk    and   www.leisurescene.com

 Please could you visit these two websites and double check that your company / business name, address, tel. number, website address

(if applicable) and contact name is correct.  If it is correct, you need do nothing more.  However, if it is wrong on www.biha.org.uk   and / or

 www.leisurescene.com   then please could you contact the BIHA webmaster - Mark Stevens at:  www.leisurescene.com/Contact.html

 If you do e-mail Mark with your new details, please could you be very clear as to how you want your advert to read.

Always mention your county as this is what each member is categorized by.

 Please include the following information and which part you want changed.

 Business or Company Name:

Address and postcode (including your COUNTY)

 One telephone number. (Office, home or mobile)

 Website address (if applicable).

 Contact name (e.g. John Smith).

 It would also be helpful if you included your BIHA membership number - i.e. the IH number (but this is not essential).

 With over 1,250 members currently in the BIHA, it becomes a real challenge from an administration point of view making sure

 that every member's details are up to date on the various websites. 

 If you do e-mail Mark, please could you also forward the same email to me at  mark.jerram@ntlworld.com  so that I can

 keep track on who needs changes made to their adverts.

 Unfortunately, we are unable to include e-mail addresses in member's adverts. The reason for this is because some members

change their e-mail addresses fairly regularly and the cost of continually updating this information would be too high.

Furthermore, a booking could be lost if a potential customer tried to contact a member on an out of date e-mail address on the

free advert.

Until the next alert.
