Local artist Moira Walton recently relocated from her former city centre NQ base to her newly refurbished garage [...]
MOOR editor Melissa Marriott and her family head to Heatons favourite The Elizabethan to find out about its recent developments and to sample the new summer menu. Having been sent by MOOR to check out the results of The Elizabethan’s latest investment at first I could spot little other than the beautiful, newly painted exterior. [...]
At MOOR we’re big fans of local author Philip Caveney but, though we’ve featured his books in the past, we’ve never really found out what makes him tick. So we decided to throw a few tricky questions his way to find out more about the man behind the stories and to hear about his latest [...]

iYoga? I loved it! When I approached the lovely Carolyn Ferguson to ask if I could attend one of her iYoga classes I was nervous as a kitten! I’d never even dipped a toe in the world of yoga before and I knew nothing of the etiquette, the aims or even the dress code! In [...]

By Sharon Byrne New managers Tricia and Bryn arrived at The Moor Top last November armed with years of experience, bags of enthusiasm and bucket loads of commitment.

MOOR sent Andy Graham and his six year old son Toby to test out under 7s rugby and found there’s a lot more to it than kids getting covered in mud. When I took my son Toby along to try out tag rugby, at Heaton Moor Rugby club under 7′s, I wasn’t quite sure what [...]
