Testimonials

  • Connection Crew are quite simply the best crew company in London, with 20 years in the industry I have known many companies. Connection are effortlessly my go-to. The best kept secret in the industry, they shine brightly on every call.

    James Alexander, Encore

  • We love working with Connection Crew. The events we do with them - from Ride London, the London Marathon and this year the Coronation – have been fantastic. The crew have been very flexible and delivered under sometimes challenging circumstances. We work with them not just because they are great, but because they do critical work to help people access jobs.... We're proud to work with them and look forward to continuing our relationship.

    Hannah Blackstock, massive

  • We enjoy working with Connection Crew. They are always friendly and reliable, and they have a versatile skill set, which is important as they can be called upon to fulfil some unusual tasks in helping to bring together a production as varied as the One Show.

    Martin Herriot, BBC

  • I also wanted to pass on my thanks to all the Crew we had onsite for being fab as always, in particular please do pass on our thanks to Liam – he was SUPER, really organised and efficient, and of course always very friendly! We love working with you and all the crew we meet onsite so please do pass on our thanks.

    Dani Palombo, Story Events

  • Before any one has finished the question ‘do you know any crew’ the words, Connection Crew have been shouted at the top of my voice. Their team have never let me down and are some of the most adaptable, professional and skilled crew I have ever worked with. From the office team to the team onsite, they nail very brief you give them often with a little added flourish.

    Miriam Sigler, Ways & Means Events

  • Connection Crew are professional and reliable, and their crew and crew leadership are a credit to the organisation. They've delivered high-profile and large-scale events for us, coming up with solutions to logistical challenges and going above and beyond to deliver a brilliant consolidation service for us at MAD Fest. I'd work with them time and again.

    Matt Hudson, Generate Events

  • Honestly, the best crew I have worked with.

Our History

We started out in 2005 as part of the homelessness charity The Connection at St Martin’s, in London’s Trafalgar Square. We worked with people who had been homeless in the past, giving them a place in our crew and helping them develop purpose, confidence and independence. Social enterprises were fairly new at the time. But we thought: if we can do great work for great clients and support those people who need it – why wouldn’t we?


Five years later, we became a Community Interest Company, or CIC: an organisation that aims to use its profits for good. More than seventeen years on we have grown from a crew of 10 to a crew of over 200, offering multiple services to a range of sectors – it all comes back to our mission to reduce and prevent homelessness.
