What a lovely person clare is, I had an 50s style swing dress that needed a new zip, she found a matching one and replaced it no issues.
Nothing is never to much trouble and it helps Clare is such a nice person to chat to.
Clare many years ago, helped me pick my wedding dress, but I don't think she remembers this as she was at another base in Lichfield.
Very highly recommended.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Clare (The Village Dressmaker) for her skill and dedication as a seamstress. Over the years, she has carried out clothing alterations for both myself and my family, offering a first class service at a more than reasonable price!
I run my own local lawncare business and approached Clare recently to enquire if she would be able to make a repair to a knapsack sprayer harness that was otherwise scrap unless it could be repaired. Clare made an unbelievable repair to the harness at a modest price and it is perhaps stronger now than when I purchased it.
However, this lady should be commended most of all for her work during the Covid lockdown when she appealed to her local community for materials to make bags for NHS workers, taking no payment and using her own time and facilities.
She has also successfully set up her own local business network group which continues to thrive as well as promoting and supporting local businesses.
She is a great example of how to run a successful business and I hope that the Village Dressmaker continues to thrive!!
Well done Clare and I wish you all the best for the future!

Visited the Cathedral last week. Ir is beautiful and there is lots to see. The interactive visitor panels provide a lot of information. Highly recommend going on the guided tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had a good way of imparting information.

In July 2023, Denise Gillbrown said about National Memorial Arboretum
What an amazing place to visit! There is an air of peace and serenity as you make your way around the many memorials, not all of which are military....The trees and flowers are spectacular, as are the diverse memorials.
There are plenty of staff on hand to give you information, direction, or just to have a quick chat, all professional, courteous, and very friendly. There are a couple of places available for refreshments, both lovely. There are plenty of conveniences at the centre which are clean and tidy, also a few portaloos around the grounds themselves. If you want a momento, there are lovely trinkets in the shops.
Well worth a visit!!! And doggies are welcome too👍

The Arboretum is beautiful, a green and wooded place with wonderful memorials for those who have given their lives for others. The Military, the Police, the Fire Service, the Coastguards and Civilians. Everyone should visit. The facilities are also very good. On this year's Armed Services Day a buggy bus was donated by the Motorbike Community so disabled can be driven around the inspiring Memorial, set above an impressive flight of steps, to those who have died in combat. There are also land trains that can take visitors around the spacious site. The restaurant offers cooked meals and snacks. You can take a your own food and eat in the grounds. There is no admission fee to the Aboretum.

Amazing yet heartbreaking to realise how many people die through conflict. It’s a very peaceful place for contemplation yet not morbid in any way. We wouldn’t be the nation we are if it wasn’t for these people who fought for our futures. Very well kept and certainly worth a visit. On my last visit I saw the inaugural flight of the hurricanes before their retirement. A special moment
