“I really love my Thursday night Pilates class here at Carolyn Bews Pilates. Everyone is very welcoming, great teachers and the studio is lovely too. I started as a complete beginner and wasn't very active previously. I've been progressing and learning more each week and the teachers are very encouraging and help with improving techniques and adapting them if needed. It's an hour each week for myself which calms me mentally, leaves me feeling so relaxed and I can feel myself becoming stronger and flexible more each week. Love it!”
“Amazing selection of brand new gym equipment in a clean vibrant setting. Helpful staff.”
“Fantastic gym. One of the best gyms ive ever trained at. No pressure to fight, no favouritism doesn't matter if you're a professional fighter, or there once a week to get fit, everyone is treated the same. The coaches are fantastic and so are the people. Very warming and welcoming gym with a range of lessons and coaches from K1 kickboxing, boxing, Judo, Bjj, MMA and cardio circuit training. The children's classes at the gym are packed and loaded with talented kids who allways leave with smiling faces. If you want your children to learn how to defend themselves and have fun whilst doing it, Can't recommend SCA enough.”
“Excellent pharmacy. If I have to wait I can just look around the store. Sometimes they have been short staffed, but hey, life happens, there is no need to be rude to the staff . The staff have never been anything but helpful to me and my husband, going above and beyond sometimes to phone and check on the medication he has been prescribed. Sometimes their advice is much clearer than the rushed consultation with the doctor. Just remember they probably know as much if not more than your doctor about the drug and it's uses and side effects, they are after all specialists in pharmacology. I am so glad we have this in store, my previous pharmacy took ages every time and there was no where to wait safely.”
“I’ve read many of the reviews of the Ashcombe Centre, and I can understand why some people have felt let down. My main takeaway, though, is that mental health services in this area are severely underfunded and not sufficiently supported to meet the growing demand. My own interactions with the Ashcombe Centre didn’t get off to the best start. I often felt like the ball in a China vs South Korea Olympic Mixed Doubles Ping Pong Final — bounced rapidly between GP, Crisis Team, CMHT, Adult ADHD, back to Crisis, and so on. It was an impressive rally, but I eventually landed in the CMHT side of the court. Mental health is a profoundly complex area of medicine, and I completely understand that I wasn’t an easy case to assess or support. But after being under the CMHT for several weeks now, I honestly can’t praise them enough. The professionals I’ve worked with have shown exceptional warmth, empathy, understanding, effort, and professionalism. What makes that even more impressive is the reality that they’re working under immense pressure, with limited resources and overwhelming caseloads. Despite that, they still manage to treat people with care, respect, and genuine humanity. It’s clear they go above and beyond what the system allows them to do. For anyone finding themselves frustrated while engaging with services, my advice would be: try to see the people behind the process. They’re not the enemy — they’re fighting an uphill battle within an underfunded system, and your openness, honesty, and patience can make a real difference in how effectively they can help you. I feel genuinely fortunate to have been placed with clinicians who have the experience and insight to unpick a complex mix of co-morbid factors and help me feel truly understood”
