“Fantastic products that are always delivered promptly with care and thought. Never any complaints from our golden retriever Reggie who loves all the treats. Can’t imagine ordering from another site, especially as Woof Club Naturals are so fantastic at what they do. Thanks so much!”

“Thank you so much Leah and family for taking such wonderful care of Anastasia, your warmth, kindness and love truly shines. We were staying locally, due to a family bereavement and Leah came to our rescue at very short notice. As a fellow dog walker in the South of England, Leah is such a credit to dog professionals, you're so lucky to have her in Rochdale and beyond. Thank you so much again Leah to you and family for everything. Rich, Ben & Anastasia.”

“Absolutely fantastic work!! My dog looks amazing and the staff member who dealt with me and my dog was very clear on what they were going to do. Thank you so much.”

“Amazing swimming school ,my son has been with splash stars for a few months now and the difference is incredible,we came from a different company and he hated swimming and was very scared ,now he looks forward to his weekly swim lessons with zoe,who is amazing Highly recomend”

“Was excited to visit Hea as I'd seen it last time I went to Prestwich but had already eaten at the makers market. We finally went on the weekend and it didn't disappoint! It's a small cafe so you might not find a seat quickly as when we went it was busy, but luckily the table in the window was available. There's lots to choose from on the menu such as Hong Kong style sandwiches, toast, and street food, as well as Hong Kong tea, coffee and bubble tea (but there are also normal teas and coffees). We ordered the ham and egg sandwich, satay steak sandwich and pistachio toast. Unfortunately some of the wraps are limited to summer months but we hope to try those next time. The wait was a bit long as it was busy, but it was worth the wait!! All very tasty and reasonably priced, especially if you go for the set menu. I definitely want to come back and try everything else!”

“Love this place the food is great and the staff are very friendly and welcoming if you're a veteran then call in to meet like minded people”

“First trip to Oldham town centre for almost 50 years! Oldham road once had pubs on almost every corner as you headed there from Manchester City Centre, many from the long gone Oldham brewery. Madge fancied a trip on the Metro and we spotted this pub in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide. Well worth the trip for just this corner pub. A bank of ten real ales. Great vibe plus a front pavement seating area. Madge found a new Oldham brewery..We are Wolf. Bar snacks incl sausage rolls. Great visit.”

“We had our 2 year olds birthday party here and it was excellent! The place is so clean and tidy, and the staff go around tidying as you play. The staff are also so helpful and will go out of their way to help, for example I forgot a candle for the cake and they managed to go and find it. They also managed to find some parry bags to put the slices of cake in as I hadn't thought of. We had an excellent time and 100% recommend. Our friends at the party were also commenting how lovely the place was. Thank you for a lovey day :)”

“Fantastic 6th birthday party today. The organisation before the party to the delivery on the day has been excellent. Georgia and Darcy were great at getting the kids involved with the party games. Everyone had a great time and a very happy and tired birthday girl!”

“What an absolute gem of a place!! 4 floors, FILLED with every kind of arcade game you could hope for, so no waiting in lines to get on the one decent game like in most other arcade places. A bar on each floor, making it really easy to get cold or hot drinks and a restaurant on the top floor selling pizzas, burger and hot dogs at half the price high street places charge. We had such a great day here and we didn't realise 8 hours had past. Will definitely be going again”

“Not used in the conventional sense but two kind guys from the scout hut helped my son when he was knocked off his motorbike outside the scout hut. They stayed with him until I got there, gave him an ice pack and helped move his bike.”

“We had a joint birthday party for my daughter and her two friends. It was very well organised, we didn't need to do anything. The staff took care of arranging all the gifts and cards into bags. They gave out the children's dinner very quickly, juice was filled up. Most importantly the children had a great time. I will definitely be returning, and would 100% recommend to family and friends that are looking to hire a venue for a children's party. Thank you to all at Wiggleworks!”

“We've been coming here as part of our programme MCR Social, asking Projekts to delivery inclusive sessions for the disabled and neurodivergent teens we work with - it has been absolutely amazing! Luke, the instructor, is a fantastic and very supportive coach! Very friendly and approachable, he really helps everyone feel welcomed and at ease, and expertly manages to work with the group who have quite a range of abilities - we've seen some really amazing development, with people clearly growing independence and confidence from the sessions. It's been a massive success and we're so thrilled, the whole group is so excited to visit every time! A big thanks to Luke and everyone at Projekts, as well as Alex and John who helped organise the sessions! We can't wait to come back :-)”

“As a healthcare professional who visits the nursery regularly, I just want to mention how pleased I have been on my visits. Lovely staff with a genuine enjoyment of working with young children. Staff are well trained on how to support children. I have seen good examples of staff implementing strategies to help support development. The nursery has a good learning environment and the staff always have creative activities set up. It is amazing to see the care, kindness and compassion they demonstrate every single day. Friendly atmosphere that is welcoming, approachable and a pleasant place to visit.”

“I’ve been a huge Crystal Maze fan since I was a child and this place is very authentic and true to the original game. We were a party of 4 and everyone got to play at least 4 games while travelling around the 4 zones. My only critique is that I feel like there should be some sort of prize at the end or a scoreboard or something as it felt like a bit of an anticlimax. It is quite a treat to spend so much money on 90 minutes of entertainment, but truly, I would do it again. I loved it!”

“Thank you, Renata, for inviting us to this Christmas princess party to sing and play with all the kids. Thank you for trusting us and supporting our team in developing a playgroup. It was a really good experience. The place is like a dream come true. When you enter, you will think you have entered a castle. We never thought we would have this opportunity to work with such a wonderful playroom. Their food is amazing, and they put in full effort to make all the guests feel welcome and comfortable. We highly recommend working with them and visiting this lovely place.”

“Thank you so much for a fab experience! We initially booked to do The Dungeon of Doom, but my youngest was too scared. Our host, Sam, was really helpful and reassuring, and allowed us to change to another available game (End of the Line) and even provided a cuddly companion for the duration of the game (Cosmo). We finished the game, and my youngest even said she wanted to play again!”

“This nursery is truly amazing! Both of my children attend here, and the staff, managers, and owners consistently go above and beyond to ensure the children are well cared for while having fun and learning. As a parent, seeing my children enter the nursery full of smiles and excitement to play and learn makes a world of difference. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!”

“Our little girl loves going to Inside Out nursery and has bonded really well with the staff. The kids get a lot of outdoor play and we get nice photo updates of what she’s been up to! I feel confident leaving her knowing she’s well looked after and I can tell Julie, Sophie and the whole team genuinely care about the kids”

“Our little girl attends 2 days a week and absolutely loves it! We’ve found that the staff have been professional and caring at the same time, making the transition to our daughter attending nursery a smooth one. They cater to her individual likes and needs and we know she is in good hands with people who genuinely know and care about her. The initial consultation with Natalie was a real pleasure as she took time to explain things clearly without being pushy at all, something that we found did happen when we viewed other nurseries. We would recommend this nursery to anyone, but especially those who are nervous about putting a child into nursery for the first time.”

“I have been taking my 26 months old to the toddler session run by Ellen for past 8 months , she loves it and looks forward to it every single week. She has learned so much over these past months. She had her 2 year development check and the health visitor was pleasantly surprised that she could jump with both her feet above the ground all by herself at this young age. All thanks to Ellen’s effort, she puts so much thought into each session , it has really paid off.”

“My son attended LSC Thorn Grove for a multisports holiday club and it was the first time he's ever been to any kind of summer camp provision before. He absolutely loved it and raved about trying out all the different sports. It was a great introduction to some new sports like dodgeball and cricket and he learned a lot. There were lots of other children there from his reception class which I think really helped. We'll be booking him in this summer for a few days too.”

“Best dance studio, with the bestest staff Daughter absolutely love goin TDS :)”

“Turners is an amazing school. We travel across the Pennines to be apart of this wonderful professional dance school. My daughter has danced at turners for several years and has gained not only friendships but awards and has been given ample opportunities and experiences. They treat their students with respect and praise and put everything in to achieving such high standards. Highly recommend dance school with amazing teachers.”

“My daughter has been coming here for a year now doing Ballet on Saturday, 45 minute class. She really enjoys her classes with Miss. Emily and Miss Jenny. We absolutely loved the Great Showman performance in the Parr Hall. She loved her beautiful sparkly costume and dancing on the stage. Initially she did not know anyone and now she chats to Jennys mum as she helps her with her muddy football boots and shin pads, (as she come straight off the pitch to ballet) she says her own name for the register and skips into class with a smile. The little things matter and the friendly atmosphere helps her to thrive. I am hoping that the twins will be able to join Little crew shortly. Highly recommended x”

“Great little bar , well worth a visit, good variety of beers.”

“Since starting at the nursery over a year ago my 2 girls have come on in leaps and bounds.There are so many educational and fun activities that are incorporated into the nursery routine.The children even do yoga!! My girls come home everyday singing and in a cheery mood. The staff really take the time out to get to know and understand the wants and needs of the children individually and as a group and commuinication with myself and father has been very good.Would highly recommend this nursery.”

“I've been sending my children to Mulberry Bush (Dumers Lane) since 2018 and I'd never consider another nursery. The staff are fantastic, so friendly and welcoming, they form such a personal bond with the children. I feel happy and comfortable that they are there for my children whilst im work to give them many experiences (and cuddles!) When my 3rd child came along there was no question that I would also be sending him to Mulberry. They have external agencies come in to teach them languages, see different animals and even visits from the emergency services. They are outstanding in every area especially with safeguarding.”

“Both of our children have been to Honeybear nursery from 9 months till starting school (or soon is currently in the preschool room) and we couldn't be happier with the care there. The staff are absolutely fantastic, the kids play outdoors lots and form lovely friendships too. I've recommended it to many people!”

“Owners and staff are excellent, very friendly and eager to help. Burger was tasty and juicy, very enjoyable. Over all, a great experience. Can't wait to try the pizza.”
