Today, my little business turns 8, and wow, what a journey this last year has been! It’s honestly been my busiest yet- a bit of a blur – but that’s a sign that Digital Flamingo is only growing stronger.

In the 2023/2024 academic year, Ashton Old Baths invited schools across Oldham and Tameside to visit the centre for a Workplace Safari offering young people an experience of the workplace.

A member of the public has kindly gifted AOB with some fantastic cuttings from a book which highlights a local band, Fairynuff. The band recorded two songs at ‘U-Turn Studios’, situated in the boiler room at AOB in 1983!
The songs were called Hombre & Static and part of this venture was accomplished musician, recording artist & composer Graham Satterwaite
