An estimated 300 people attended the Federation of Window Cleaners annual trade show at the De Vere Hotel in Blackpool on 9 October. The association managed to attract four new members and sold numerous DVDs of its new window cleaning safety production over the course of the day.
The window cleaning competition, presented by speed cleaner Terry Turbo Burrows, was also a huge success. Burrows managed to beat his own world record as the world’s fastest window cleaner, shaving 0.10 seconds off his time of 9.24 seconds to clean three windows.
The day’s activities also raised money for several charities, including Water for Africa and Cerebral Palsy.
