“We booked Circus Sensible for a party of 75 girls and the performers wowed with their magic tricks and stunts! The children then loved trying their hand at juggling, spinning plates, twirling Chinese Diabolo, walking on mini stilts, and even balancing peacock feathers on their fingertips! I'd definitely hire the Circus Sensible team again and recommend them to anyone looking for a unique party experience."”

“A great venue for parties. Beautifully decorated and a perfect space for what I had in mind. Sean and team were really friendly and helpful and helped to create a great atmosphere. PA/Hire a DJ package was seamless and easy to use. Bar prices were good and had a great selection. Thanks to Sean and team at Squad House, highly recommended.”

“Great service. Was sent pictures and prices of selection and communicated with throughout until delivery . Recliners are very comfortable and seem good quality for very reasonable prices. Would definetly recommend”

“The best nursery we could have picked for our daughter. We chose Kinder Giggles because it was small and has a family feel to it. My daughter was born during lockdown and had some health issues and i felt supported by the staff in making sure she was safe and settled. She absolutely loves her time at nursery with all of her friends. We are kept up to date with all of the amazing activities they do throughout the day. Management have always been approachable and flexible if I have needed to change days or times. We have used other nurseries in the area for my other child and feel they have not been at the same standard as what kinder Giggles is. Thanks everyone for all of your hard work xx”

She loves playing and dancing with her little friends and the staff make a really big effort with lots of great activities and themed weeks. Kim - the manager - is always very responsive, helpful and accommodating and was from our very first visit to look around. My daughter used reusable nappies and staff were happy to accommodate these too. I would definitely recommend Space Station!”

“Chestnut Theatre School is just fantastic! My daughter has been going for two years, and it's been amazing to see her come out of her shell. She used to be so shy, but now she's much more confident and loves going to her drama classes. The teachers are so kind and really know how to make the kids feel good about themselves. It's not just about acting; it's like a little confidence boost every week! If you have a shy kiddo, I highly recommend giving Chestnut Theatre School a try – it's made a real difference for us!”

“My daughter has just left Bright Futures to start reception. She attended the nursery from 11 months old and during this time I can not fault Bright Futures for the care and attention they gave her. All the staff accommodated her individual needs, constantly checked in with me about her development, I received regular updates about her week, she loved the food provided and most importantly they provided a safe environment for her throughout the time she was there. I would highly recommend Bright Futures.”

“Our 8yo daughter attends Monday Acting School with Footlights and she absolutely loves it. She gets very excited to go every week because, in her own words, the class is creative and fun. She was asked to write a speech a couple of weeks ago and when she finished, she couldn't have been more proud of herself. We are delighted to see how much confidence in her abilities she has learnt in class and how much she enjoys it. We'd highly recommend Footlights Bury & thank you, Team Footlights, for your hard work and dedication.”

“A star kids Nursery is amazing, I could not be more happier with this nursery. The staff go out their way in the best interest of your child. A star is a welcoming warming nursery, a great place for your child to grow and develop. Well done Neelam for being so amazing with the kids.”

“We have been using Bevan & Co as our Accountants since 2013 for our business We Help You Too Ltd, that manages Homebuyerconveyancing.com. We couldn't be more grateful for the outstanding service they have provided from the beginning. They have been incredibly knowledgable, responsive and thorough, explaining everything clearly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable accountant support.”

“Mark and Vicky looked after my brother since late 2021 when he couldn't manage on his own. As well has cleaning his home they washed his clothing, bedding etc. On a more recent occasion when my brother had a fall prior to going into a care home they carried out a deep clean of the accommodation and the house clearance after giving notice of his tenancy agreement. In addition they did his shopping, providing receipts for every purchase they made. Living remotely they were a god send, as I was unable to carry out the support they provided and don’t know what I’d have done without them. Mark and Vicky are reliable, trustworthy and worked to a high standard. Alan”

“Great place Ged's work is mind blowing, couldn't be happier. Wouldn't go anywhere else now”

“Maisie is a wonderful tattoo artist, so easy to get along with whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism. She was very accommodating to my needs of frequent breaks and even offered me cups of tea. The result of my tattoo was even better than what I had originally imagined. 6 months on, my tattoo still looks just as amazing. I could not be more happier with the result. I highly recommend Stone Heart Tattoos. I shall be returning in the near future.”

“Absolutely blown away by the tattoo I had done by Dem! Her realism work is nothing short of incredible – the detail, shading, and overall artistry are next level. She captured exactly what I wanted and turned it into a stunning piece of art that I’ll cherish forever. Dem was professional, friendly, and made the whole experience so comfortable. If you’re looking for a tattoo artist who can bring your ideas to life with breathtaking realism, look no further. I can’t recommend her enough – 5 stars all the way!”
