BOUNCY castle hire firm Jumparoo was jumping for joy when it landed the Wessex Fire and Security Excellence in Customer Service Award.

The judge, Wessex Fire and Security managing director Chris Stott, said it had been a difficult decision to pick a winner from five great finalists.

But he said last year’s Small Business of the Year winner was the “absolutely embodiment of customer service”. He added: “Believe in customer service first and good results will follow.”

Responding, Corinna Garrett said: “Last year I was gobsmacked. This year in front of all these people, I just can’t believe it.”
