Contacting and Finding Locations - Waitrose

Waitrose:
We originally planned to film at the Waitrose Store, Upminster. The group and I visited this location with our actors and camera to check out the location and take some recce photos. We was able to do this as the location is very accessible and not far from our school premises. So the plan was to check out the location and take some photos with our actors, which we took the shot of being able to get permission to test shoot that day and then film in the future. However, we was not able to film without contacting the head office to gain permission. So we took our recce photos and was given a contact card to ask for filming permission which is shown in the picture below. 
Then my group member, Nimat, had to call several managers and exchange emails so that they could get back to her about our filming request. The supervisor in the main head office then emailed her this form to complete.

Unfortunately they denied our request as we had gave them to short notice. Nimat carried on to try negotiate with Waitrose but it was unsuccessful.The picture below displays the email that was communicated between Waitrose and my colleague.
