Help with searching
There are several ways you can find organisations, events and services on the Our
Oldham Service Directory.
Quick and easy - Simple searches
On most pages you will find a search box - simply type in one or more keywords
and click Search.
Alternatively, to list all the organisations, events and services in an area, type
in the postcode in the postcode box and click Search. You do not have to enter the
whole postcode – for example, you could enter OL4.
If these searches bring up too many results, you can narrow your search by entering
keywords and a postcode.
Advanced search – be more specific
If you’d like to enter more criteria into your search – use the advanced search
function – here you can add in things like ages and event dates.
Browse by zone
If you are unsure what you are looking for, you can browse the site.
- Choose the zone that describes you the best
- A list of categories will then display - choose a category you are interested in
by clicking on it.
- A list of sub-categories will now display – again click on the one that interests
you.
- This will take you to a list of the organisations, services and events for this
sub-category – have a look at those that sound relevant to you.
At any time, you can return to a previous page by using the back button or selecting
the link from the breadcrumb trail at the top of the screen, for example
Children > Having fun > Clubs for kids.
Helping with accessibility
Change the font size
At the left side of each page you’ll see the letter 'a' in three different sizes
– by selecting these the font size can be made larger or smaller.
