Community programs in Salford

“Started at Roger Gracie academy about 3 months ago now with a friend and haven't looked back. What an amazing place with even more amazing people. I've never been made to feel more welcome anywhere in my life as I do here. Mike and dave teach amazing very easy to understand classes for adults and children. If I had one wish in life, it would be to have started Jiujitsu sooner.”

“I took a Search and Social Media Marketing Strategy course at Salford Business School last week and I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone interested in growing their online presence. The balance between learning new practical tools and tricks and setting a big picture strategy was brilliant, just what I needed. Since the course I have implemented many of the things I leant on the day and genuinely can see the results already. Strongly recommended.”

“Went to watch Cinderella over the Christmas period. The cast were brilliant and the script very well written. As others have mentioned, the ugly sisters were the stars of the show with lots of interaction with the audience. Overall, very good value for money on the initial purchasing of tickets and what the play delivered. I wasn't sure on the parking arrangements and it appears limited where you can park but there were some spaces behind and around the row of shops. We caught the bus to the local precinct and walked the 10 minutes so that is a viable option. The venue itself has food and drink on sale that is very reasonably priced and you can pay both with cash and card. It is a small venue that until recently I did not know even existed. It's intimate and seating, while seen better days, was adequate and even after the near 3 hours being there, was not feeling uncomfortable. Overall, an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon with family”

“I would like to give positive feedback for Amelia from the Admissions Team. She has been incredibly kind and supportive throughout the entire process. Amelia communicates very clearly and always makes sure we fully understand each step. She explains everything in a simple, easy-to-follow way, which makes the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Her professionalism, patience, and warm attitude truly make a difference, and I deeply appreciate her guidance.”

“This is one place where you can come alive, the breath of fresh air while watching the sports activities. I love the inclusivity. They have a team for physically challenged teenagers and kids. They come with their carers or families, and it is an amazing sports center to get on a sports team. And yes! Pets are allowed in. There are no seats here, but u can always come with one.”

“Lovely staff, from the vets to main shop floor. Alex was the lovely staff that assisted us, and they had a polite & positive attitude that made us feel welcome. Thank you Alex, our dogs loved you :)”

“One of the most authentic and inspirational places to learn Thai boxing in Manchester if not the northwest. Incredibly welcoming, great equipment and culture and Thai boxing is only the tip of what the centre offers. Can’t recommend enough, newbies and more seasoned hobbiest to fighters on the local circuit”

“Very convenient and handy little store. Nice staff and even a friendly security guard. A little bit more expensive than some supermarkets. But you pay for the quality and local convenience i guess. Handy for people who live on Chaple Street”

“Loved the University. Best in Manchester. Great support for international students.”

“A hidden gem, with wood carving every day of the week”

“Staff are lovely and welcoming. Great value for money and more than happy with the care”

“I went this morning when it first opened. The staff were very polite and helpful. Made me feel very comfortable and was covid secure. The stock is great and you can get your essential items you need. Thankyou for your help guys.”

“I am so glad this store opened in Media City. It was badly needed. I come in here nearly every day for groceries. I’m never disappointed. The staff are very friendly and helpful especially if I get stuck with the self service tills. There is a wide range of goods available, certainly enough to keep you going if you live in Media City. I would recommend getting the Co-Op App and becoming a member. It only costs £1 and you get lots of savings on your shopping. All you need to do is scan your bar code when you pay and you’ll see the savings. The store is situated near several apartment buildings and there is a car park and two hotels next to it. There are also many bars and restaurants nearby too so it’s a handy stop after an evening out. There are often price reductions in the evenings too if you’re looking for a bargain. A great place to shop. Thank you to the Co-Op staff and thanks for reading”

“So far I’m enjoying kids planet everything is smooth and I feel like Josiah is safe and learning. I especially love the app where I’m updated about Joshiah day”

“Best swimming club for all ages . In just a few weeks my grandchildren are already more confident in the water”

“My two elder grandchildren went here and my youngest one is about to start. As a family we have been completely impressed and delighted by the care and development the children receive. We particularly love the amount of time the children spend outside in virtually all weathers. When we first saw inside I was i was surprised that there didn't seem to be many commercially bought toys, but came to realise that they don't need them as they use materials and the world around them as their toys. A brilliantvplace”

“Excellent school would recommend it”

“I had a good experience with this company. They kept me updated when it came to appointments and if they had to be cancelled etc. I had Ruth as my therapist and she was great, very understanding always made me positive after an appointment.”

“Staff were lovely, no sure what the negative reviews are about. They were kind,listening, and supportive”
