Youth development in Manchester

“Brilliant dance school, very safe and welcoming.”

“Absolutely love Holly Hulton’s dance school! My daughter has been going for nearly two years now and still looks forward to every class. Miss Holly is an amazing teacher — so kind, and brilliant with the kids. The atmosphere is always positive and fun, and you can really see how much the children grow in confidence. Highly recommend!”

“Fantastic dance school!!! All of the teachers go above and beyond for all their students. My daughter has grown and developed so much here, they also have great SEN provisions including a teacher with specific experience who is amazing, as they all are!!! We honestly can not thank you enough for all you do!!! Xxx”

“Last night's show was well presented it involved children of all ages and abilities who all displayed confidents.”

“Atomic is an amazing dance school with a warm, positive atmosphere and truly talented instructors. Both my daughter and I really enjoy our classes there. It’s a place where we feel welcomed, encouraged, and excited to learn. Highly recommend for dancers of any age!”

“My 6-year-old daughter took part in a 4-day holiday club at Little Voices this summer. Despite it being her first time there and not knowing any of the other children beforehand, she came running out on the first day with a big smile, excitedly sharing stories about her "new friends!" At the end of the week, parents were invited to watch the children's performance, and it was truly remarkable! Every child had a chance to shine in their own unique way, which was delightful to watch. Little Voices is such a nurturing environment and there was absolutely no pressure on the children over the 4 days, as some might worry about; the focus was on having fun—and my daughter certainly did that! We will be back, for sure. Thank you, Laura...you are amazing!”

“I was having some trouble with 2 piercings i had done less local to me, which had got infected and the ball had come off one of them. I came to inkspire in a panic looking for advice, and the piercer professionally cleaned all of my piercings on that ear and put the ball back on for me - free of charge. I can’t recommend inkspire enough for their professionalism and kindness.”

“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.”

“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 daughter has attended the dance school for 9 years and currently takes classes 5 days per week. It’s her home from home and she thoroughly enjoys the challenge of the classes and the interactions she has with her teachers and classmates. The variety of class types available is great, including musical theatre which my daughter loves. The encouragement and careful teaching has allowed my daughter to excel and progress through grades gaining high marks at each step. The highlight of our Summer is always the week of Summer School!”

“Good community centre, excellent coffee morning each month,line dancing and music and movement weekly plus children's dance classes”

“I highly recommend it to everyone. My child can basically swim after learning it for a few months. He learned swimming in another place for a year and still doesn't know how to swim.”

“Initial swim school is an amazing place to learn to swim or keep up the practice. The instructor are patient and knowledgeable and help you with every step until your comfortable. The swimming pool is a good length and the environment is good.”

“An absolute gem tucked away with it's own land and great accommodation”

“Great football pitches, parking can be tight but there's also a school car park across the road from it.”

“The people who have been there have so so helpful me with food, medical items EG bandages, plasters etc. ....directing me to the nearest doctors surgery for me to register with. Email communications very supportive. Friendly and approachable. Theres a lot of help and support there”

“Had my grandsons 2nd birthday party here today 13/8/23 such a good venue and also keeping money within the local community will definitely book again, the centre just have one rule which is leave it in the same condition that you found it. Thanks Maureen will be seeing you for the next booking x”

“Watched my granddaughter play basketball here. They are well equipped and fit for purpose. Ample parking. If anything, I would have liked a brew! Only a vending machine unfortunately.”

“My Daughter and her friend are currently at the inflatable obstacle swimming course and are having a great time. What a credit the you g male lifeguard is to your team. He is engaging with all the children, chatting, splashing them, throwing buckets of water at them. It is him that has made the experience extra fun!”

“Alhamdulillah it’s one of the fantastic school. I came to know from my son that, few students were kicked out from the school for the bad behaviour. I think their parents or themselves are writing the bad comments but never trust them rather visit by yourself. DHLNW is competing with other grammar schools in terms of teaching and learning and it shows in their GCSE result. Alhamdulillah my son is doing brilliant there. He had no punishment at all but went to headteacher’s reward meal for an outstanding behaviour in the term. They give a lots of rewards and encourage a lot to have sunnah life. Alhamdulillah, I am proud to send my son there. This school prepares our children for here and here after. My nephew was a ex student of this school and he is a student of Manchester University. Many many many thanks to the management and the staff . May Allah SWA keep the school there until the day of Qiyamah. Ameen.”

“If you have been in here you know its fantastic already. This is not a typical cafe, its like a community centre but with style, that puts on events and builds networks amongst people.”

“Welcoming friendly scout leaders. Lots of fun and activities to be had”

“Friendly and professional staff.”

“I love it so much, can't wait to try again”
