A quick reminder to our regular visitors…. Little Northerners will be closed to allow us to prepare, host and tidy down from the annual Proudfest event (formally Family Pride) due to the increased numbers of people using the space I decided it was safer to close the space to allow safe preparation.
We would LOVE (this years theme 💗) to welcome along all our families to the main event taking place on Saturday 12.30 -6, more info to follow.
Happy Pride everyone 🏳️‍🌈 and have a great Bank Holiday weekend 👍

Little Northerners (and me) are funded by Social Value fund. I’ve added this book into the space to give you the opportunity to let the people who pay for the space know what a difference their investment in community is making. 🙏

I’m really excited to be hosting the FREE Baby Week workshops tomorrow. There’s only one space left on the Behaviour Management workshop!
It’s worth noting these workshops are based on children aged 0-6mths, workshops for other ages will follow later on in year.
There is a lift from street level, which I’ll post some pictures of tomorrow, I’ll also be around to help.
Here’s a picture of me so you know who to look for.

Please find a short video in the comments of how to find the Village Hall.
I’ve borrowed the video from a fellow Village Hall user as town will be very busy today so I’m avoiding the crowds…

Why am I doing this ?

Place make it events is a small family centric events company to be based in the heart of Stretford. My vision is to deliver good quality experiences that are inclusive and accessible to all.

Having conceived, built and grown the Fleximinder childcare late in 2019 I decided to pass the baton on to someone new and draw on my experiences with children and as a parent to start a new adventure.

Having been offered the role of “Head Elf” by the big man himself at Elf Towers I has such a great time with the children I thought I would extend that enthusiasm throughout the year.

I will be working closely with Bruntwood and Stretford Mall to deliver high quality, accessible and engaging events with an emphasis on families although all the community will be welcome.
