Read what people have said about us and our transformations
"Transformers North are the most amazing group of garden angels. They always arrive with a smile and a willingness to tackle any task, great or small. When they leave we are all smiling and thank them for their help. The Garden Group of the Red House Yorkshire Heritage Trust cannot thank them enough for helping to bring back to life this heritage site's neglected garden."

"The Transformers came to help our wonderful charity in 2017 and we couldn't be any more pleased with what they achieved!!
From the outset Becky was professional, enthusiastic and really excited about working with us to transform the space we had. The team arrived at every session full of smiles and ready to do a proper days hard work and they managed to create us a beautiful community garden that everybody in the local area can use and feel happy and safe in. The area and the brief they were given was basic to say the least but they managed to turn basic into brilliant and we cannot wait for the Summer to come so we can spend all day every day outside.
Thank you Becky and team for being such fabulous people with even more fabulous ideas!"
- Vicki, Business Development Manager, Ruddi's Retreat, Huddersfield
"The Transformers North team has made a real difference to our graveyard. With their blend of energy, resourcefulness and numbers. They have not only helped to look after the grass which was the original request, but have been able to uncover a long lost path and tidy up a load of fallen Crosses, many of which are now resting against the plinth that they originally stood on prior to being pushed over onto the grass making mowing a real obstacle course. These were ‘maybe you could try’ requests, that we as a church team could not do."
- Gareth Phillips (St John’s church, Dewsbury Moor, maintenance volunteer)
"It was an absolute pleasure working with Becky, the team and of course the amazing guys of Transformers North. They were incredibly polite, hard working and had a great sense of humour. We had lots of fun together and it was lovely to see everyone 'mucking in' (literally on the allotments!) together and enjoying themselves, whilst tackling the beginning of our hoped for community plot. We hope to work with them again soon."
- Anne Wood, Secretary of York Road Allotments, Dewsbury
"Ravensthorpe Residents Action Group always look forward to working with the group. We have fun working together. We all get along well together and the work always gets done. Without Transformers North we would be far behind with our project."
- Karen, Ravensthorpe Residents Action Group, Dewsbury
"What superstars! The old TV “Ground Force” team have nothing on this lovely lot. What can we say? A million ‘thank yous’ for coming to our rescue yesterday. We are working against the clock at the moment to get our raised beds built and filled; and to plant over 3000 bulbs before winter sets in. You made all the difference. And what a team! It was a pleasure to see how well you worked together.
Book them if you have an outdoor project that needs muscle and practical skills. Not only will you be amazed by the rate at which they rattle through the work, you’ll be helping to provide new opportunities for adults who are disadvantaged within the labour market to use their skills and really shine".
- Vicky, Clem's Garden, Lindley, Huddersfield
"Transformers North are a fantastic asset to Crow Nest Park. They are a cheerful “Can Do” bunch of people. They have transformed our Multicourt by giving it a new lick of paint. Built a whole range of wooden items including bird boxes and planters. They have also assisted with weeding flower beds on the Mansion Front and litter picking the remote areas of the Park. They work independently and are well supervised; a pleasure to have around".
- Amanda Poulson, Team Leader, Crow Nest Park, Dewsbury
"What an amazing job Transformers North have done in the grounds of Headfield Junior School in Dewsbury. We had lots of land which was never really used very much. We now have a story circle, an outdoor art area, a pond we can actually use, a space for reflection and a campfire. The school curriculum has been transformed because we are now able to use our outdoor space so much more effectively. Thank you Transformers North".
- Judith Spark, Class teacher, Headfield C E (C) Junior School
Regarding the Alien Space Craft we designed and built...
When the space craft was 'discovered', the buzz around school was incredible, the children fully embraced the concept and used their creativity and imagination to concoct an outlandish range of theories about what they thought had actually happened”.
- Miss Tamm, Assistant Headteacher, Headfield C E (C) Junior School
"The Friends of Crow Nest Park would like to thank Transformers North for their huge contribution in the Wildflower Garden. Come rain or shine, Transformers North have cheerfully turned out to help us with clearance, pruning, weeding, fence-building and wall-painting. They have really made a difference".
- Jenifer, Friends of Crow Nest Park
