Hub On The Hill review

Researched for After-school clubs in Telford

Unknown

103 Southgate, Sutton Hill, Telford, Shropshire, TF7 4HG · Service area: Telford

Hub On The Hill in short

Hub on the Hill is a Madeley Town Council community centre in Sutton Hill, built around a café serving hot food across weekday lunchtimes [1]. Resident groups include term-time baby and toddler sessions alongside an on-site hairdresser, with rooms available to hire. Our read is that this is a daytime meeting place: coffee, company and community groups rather than after-school cover. The building belongs to the town council, which keeps the offer steady rather than flashy.

The Hub suits you if you want a base for a daytime group or a family-friendly café in the south of the borough, with a phone line and an email address for room-hire enquiries [1]. Opening runs across the working week with the café closing in the middle of the afternoon. Families in Telford run baby and toddler sessions here in term time, which brings young parents through the doors each week. Nothing on the record describes wraparound childcare, and no hire rates are published.

Its public record is friendly: a mid-fours Google score from around a hundred and thirty reviews [2]. Hub on the Hill was researched as a possible wraparound option but not assessed as an after-school club, because the Ofsted register search returns no listing [3]. In our judgement the gap is paperwork as well as status, with no prices and no insurance details published.

Questions about Hub On The Hill

Is Hub on the Hill any good?

As a daytime community base, yes: a council-run centre in Sutton Hill with a café serving hot food across weekday lunchtimes and regular family groups in term time [1]. As childcare, no: it is not an Ofsted-registered setting and was not assessed as an after-school club [3]. Visit for coffee, groups and room hire rather than wraparound care.

Is Hub on the Hill registered with Ofsted?

No. The Hub is a community centre with a café and rooms to hire, and the Ofsted register search returns no listing for it [1] [3]. That is why it was researched but not assessed in this round. If you need registered wraparound care, shortlist the two ranked clubs on the trade page instead.

What does Hub on the Hill charge?

No room-hire rates are published on the page: hire prices are available only by emailing the council address given there [1]. Write with your date, your numbers and what the room is for, and ask for the full cost in writing. No insurance details are published either, so ask for those alongside the quote.

Where is Hub on the Hill?

From Southgate in Sutton Hill, in the south of the borough, with Telford as its recorded service area [1]. The café opens across the working week with hot food until the early afternoon, Tuesday to Friday. Its recorded service area is Telford, though daytime opening shapes who it suits best. Check the opening hours before you travel, since the building keeps daytime hours.

How do I contact Hub on the Hill?

By phone or email to the town council contacts on the Hub page, which also handles room-hire enquiries [1]. Say whether you are asking about a group, the café or a hire, and give your dates. Ask for opening times, availability and the full cost together in one written reply.

What do the reviews say, and how is it ranked?

Google carries a mid-fours score from around a hundred and thirty reviews, a friendly record for a community venue [2]. The Hub is not ranked in this round, since only Ofsted-registered settings are assessed as after-school clubs. Read a spread of the Google reviews yourself, then drop into the café to judge it first-hand.
