Cllr Steve Veryard said: “It’s a good step in the right direction for Stanford-le-Hope,” while Cllr Phil Anderson said: “I’m cautiously impressed with what I’ve seen as at present this area looks dilapidated and drags down the whole town centre.

Aside from Hogwarts and the unnecessary (yet unavoidable) magic puns, Dan Farrant is a brilliant magician and we truly recommend him for any up and coming events you may be organising. Dan’s close up magic is astonishing and it would certainly add that magical spark into any event. And if you don’t believe us, then watch the clip!
