Barber shop which is a 'safe space' for children with special needs up for award
A barber helping to make hair cuts more accessible to everyone – is up for the borough's best. Craig's Barber Shop in Tonge Moor has been shortlisted for The Bolton News' Best Barber Shop 2025. Owner Craig Henderson is no stranger to awards – with the barber well known for his work cutting the hair of children with autism and offering mental health training to the community. The barber shop was a finalist for the Community Hero award at the Modern Barber Awards this year for the fourth year running. At the end of last year, it won Best Local Salon at the Most Wanted national awards – an achievement Craig called 'unbelievable'. Craig won Best Local Salon at the national Most Wanted awards (Image: Harvey Williams-Fairley) He strives to make his shop a 'safe space' for people with additional needs who might struggle when they go to get their hair cut. Craig says that for people with additional needs, the 'sensory explosion' of entering a barber shop can feel 'like a grenade going off'. He specialises in making sure that they feel comfortable and helps to desensitise them to getting their haircut in a safe and controlled setting. The barber shop boasts a perfect five-star rating on Trustpilot – with parents praising Craig's kindness and patience. Have a story? Get in touch at One review read: 'My two-year-old, who is non-verbal and usually finds haircuts extremely distressing, had a successful haircut today on our first visit.

I tried canned wine for the first time The cans I tried were Most Wanted Pinot Grigio Fizz Popular wine La Vieille Ferme recently launched a canned version I tried wine from a can for the very first time, and while I was unsure on the taste, I will still buy it again for one reason. But before we get into that, let me first explain the reason behind purchasing canned wine for the very first time. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Wine: I tried canned wine for the first time - now it's my summer must-have | Panama - One of my favourite wines of all time for summer is La Vieille Ferme Rosé, and they have recently announced a launch of a canned version of the popular drink , which has been affectionately nicknamed 'chicken wine' by fans, due to the chicken illustration on the label. I was eager to try the canned version of La Vieille Ferme, to see if it was just as delicious in a can as it is in a bottle, but sadly I couldn't find it in my local supermarkets. Instead, I decided to try any wine in a can, and picked up the brand Most Wanted. I purchased two flavours, the Pinot Grigio Fizz and the Pinot Grigio Pink Fizz. I purchased the cans for £2 each from Morrisons. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad To be honest, I wasn't overly impressed with the taste. I do think wine in a can doesn't taste anywhere near as good as wine from a bottle, but it certainly wasn't undrinkable. In fact, despite the flavour not being as great as wine from a bottle, I decided I would definitely purchase again and this is down to one main reason - convenience. I think that canned wine is an excellent choice if you're going on a picnic and want to pack lightly, or even for bringing along to a barbecue. Also, I felt that it was more refreshing than wine in a bottle. The can was a lot colder after chilling in the fridge, compared to a glass bottle, making it a nice cold drink during the hot weather.

I tried supermarket wine in a can – the cheapest can tastes best and it was nicer than M&S
The winner is the perfect summer tipple costing just 95p per 100ml TOP OF THE PLONKS I tried supermarket wine in a can – the cheapest can tastes best and it was nicer than M&S Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WINE in a can is the perfect summer tipple to take to the beach or on a picnic. But which supermarket version is the best value? Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Rosie Taylor tested wine in a can ahead of summer Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures We've tested the wine cans offered by major supermarkets against the leading brand Most Wanted, to find out which is the best value for money. Here are how wine cans from Asda, Sainsbury's, Aldi, Waitrose and M&S compared. We scored them out of ten for taste and out of ten for value for money, taking into account size and alcohol content. Here's how they scored out of a total of 20 points: Most Wanted Pinot Grigio Fizz £2.65 for 200ml (11% ABV) 7 Most Wanted is a premium brand - but it wasn't the most expensive in our test Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures The Most Wanted wine in a can was gently bubbly and had a light, fruity taste. Although a premium brand, this was actually not the most expensive wine can we tried – working out at £1.33 per 100ml. It's a great wine to take on a day out. Taste: 9/10 Value: 7/10 Total: 16/20 Asda Pica Pica Sauvignon Blanc & Pinot Grigio Rose £2.48 for 250ml (11% ABV) 7 Asda's wine were not a hit among our testers Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures Asda's Pica Pica wine cans were very harsh and made our testers wince. Both the wine and the rose versions had a chemical smell and tasted like medicine. Although a bargain price, at just 99p per 100ml, you would be better off spending slightly more on another brand. Taste: 3/10 Value: 8/10 Total: 11/20 Sainsbury's Pinot Pinot Pinot Grigio Fizz & Pinot Grigio Pink Fizz £2.60 for 200ml (11% ABV) 7 Sainsbury's versions were a close copy of the Most Wanted brand Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures The Sainsbury's Pinot Pinot wine can range was fizzy with a light fruity taste that was pretty similar to the Most Wanted brand. But the rose version had hardly any colour when it was poured out of the can. At £1.30 per 100ml, these were one of the cheapest wine can versions we tried and were a close copy of the brand. Taste: 6/10 Value: 8/10 Total: 14/20 WINNER - Aldi Costellore PG Fizz Pinot Grigio Fizz & Pinot Grigio Blush Fizz £6.99 for 75cl (11.5% ABV) 7 Aldi was crowned the winner in our test Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures Working out at just 95p per 100ml, this was the cheapest wine we tested – and it was surprisingly nice. Aldi's wine in a can was gently fizzy, with a slightly dry, fruity taste. It was very light and easy to drink, making it a perfect picnic tipple. We preferred the white version to the blush, which had a harsher alcohol taste. Taste: 8/10 Value: 9/10 Total: 17/20 Waitrose Italia Pinot Grigio Rose Can £3.65 for 250ml (12.5% ABV) 7 Waitrose's wine can version was flat without any fizz Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures This was the only wine in a can we tried which was flat, without any fizz. It was relatively light and easy to drink but had a background harsh chemical taste which became stronger as it got warm. This was a larger can than most of the others we tried and also had the highest alcohol content, at 12.5 per cent ABV. But this was reflected in the £1.46 per 100ml cost. Taste: 7/10 Value: 8/10 Total: 15/20 M&S Bramble Hill Sparkling White & Sparkling Rose £5 for 200ml (11% ABV) 7 The wine at M&S had lots of light bubbles and were easy to drink Credit: David McHugh / Brighton Pictures These M&S English wines were the fanciest cans we tried. Both were fizzing with lots of light bubbles and were easy to drink. The white was more fruity and lighter than the rose, which had a harsher taste to it. But at £5 for a small 200ml can, these worked out at £2.50 per 100ml – more than twice as expensive as the Aldi version. Taste: 7/10 Value: 4/10 Total: 11/20 How to save money on your supermarket shop THERE are plenty of ways to save on your grocery shop. You can look out for yellow or red stickers on products, which show when they've been reduced. If the food is fresh, you'll have to eat it quickly or freeze it for another time. Making a list should also save you money, as you'll be less likely to make any rash purchases when you get to the supermarket. Going own brand can be one easy way to save hundreds of pounds a year on your food bills too. This means ditching "finest" or "luxury" products and instead going for "own" or value" type of lines. Plenty of supermarkets run wonky veg and fruit schemes where you can get cheap prices if they're misshapen or imperfect. For example, Lidl runs its Waste Not scheme, offering boxes of 5kg of fruit and vegetables for just £1.50. If you're on a low income and a parent, you may be able to get up to £442 a year in Healthy Start vouchers to use at the supermarket too. Plus, many councils offer supermarket vouchers as part of the Household Support Fund. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?
