> Co-operatives and social enterprises still feel at home in Rochdale, birthplace of the co-operative movement, alongside the distribution centres at Kingsway Business Park. dijitul supports organisations like these remotely from Mansfield and quotes any on-site work upfront. A support plan is from £25 a month + VAT, and ad-hoc support is £45 an hour + VAT.

Rochdale is famous as the birthplace of the modern co-operative movement: the Rochdale Pioneers opened their shop on Toad Lane in 1844. The town grew on cotton and woollen mills, and today it has a strong manufacturing and distribution base, helped by its position on the M62. Kingsway Business Park, beside junction 21, is one of the region's biggest employment sites, with large distribution centres including JD Sports' warehouse, as well as manufacturers and offices.

The borough includes Heywood, where distribution parks by the M62 and M66 hold national logistics operations, Middleton, Littleborough and Milnrow. The town centre has been regenerated with the Rochdale Riverside development and the reopening of the River Roch through the centre. Hopwood Hall College provides further education and apprenticeships across the borough.

Logistics and distribution are central to Rochdale's IT needs. Warehouses need dependable Wi-Fi for handheld scanners, label and document printing that works every shift, and fast setup and removal of accounts for agency workers. Manufacturing firms need production and stock systems backed up properly and protected against ransomware. The town also has many small businesses, social enterprises and co-operatives, which tend to need affordable, well-explained help with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, websites and online payments. Charities and community organisations often qualify for discounted Microsoft licences, which we can help them claim and set up.

### Can you help a Rochdale charity get discounted Microsoft 365?

Yes. Eligible charities can access Microsoft's nonprofit offers. We can help with the application, set up the tenant, migrate email and configure MFA. Setup work is quoted upfront. Our Business plan at £50 a month + VAT then includes an hour of changes each month.

### Do you cover Heywood, Middleton and Littleborough?

Yes. We support businesses across the Rochdale borough, including Heywood, Middleton, Littleborough, Milnrow and Wardle. Support is delivered remotely from Mansfield, with plans from £25 a month + VAT. Kingsway and Heywood distribution sites are covered in the same way.

### Our warehouse scanners keep losing connection. What causes that?

Usually weak coverage between racking, poor roaming settings or channel interference. We can check your access points and controller remotely and recommend changes. Any extra hardware fitted on site is quoted first.
