Excellent service

The communication from start to finish was prompt and efficient. They let you know at each stage what to expect. The service is top notch.
I was very impressed that nothing was too much trouble, and they helped set my booklets out with such skill and precision, always mindful of keeping the costs down

When I recieved my booklets I was thrilled to see everything set out in print.

Thank you so much to the Taletrove
team. I will definitely use your services again and recommend you to family and friends
Many thanks

Super useful idea!

Having recently moved abroad, I was looking for a simple way to keep my elderly relatives updated. Taletrove is really useful. They get a little newsletter each month with the photos and bits I wish to send over, which I know they like. It takes the pressure off trying to keep everyone in the loop from far away. Really handy service for families spread out.

Such a fabulous idea

Such a fabulous idea. Its great value for money and being able to set a WhatsApp group so everyone can contribute makes it really easy to do and our parents love it. Our mum shows it to anyone who will look and it reminds her of what has been happening during the month. The events coming up page is helpful too.

Absolutely wonderful idea and service…

Absolutely wonderful idea and service from Taletrove. Our Grandad loves to keep up with all our family adventures and we all felt this would be a really good way to keep in touch with him. He got his first newsletter last week and absolutely loved it. From the moment we signed up we have had an unbelievably first class and personal experience with Taletrove…. The WhatsApp group is easy to set up, there is a countdown after each submission , and the beautifully set out and printed newsletter is superb. We even had a follow up email to check Grandad had received it and all was well.
If you are wondering if this can be as good as it sounds-then you needn’t worry as it actually is!!! Rare I know!!

Grandad loves it!

Me and my brother got Taletrove for our grandad last month. He was thrilled
when he received his first newsletter! We have family all across the world, and as he isn’t on WhatsApp, it helps keep him up to date with things he otherwise would miss. Would definitely recommend!

A Precious Link for Grandad

Taletrove is such a wonderful idea, and it has become an absolutely vital link for our family.

Since my Nan passed away this summer, my grandad has been feeling increasingly lonely. Because he doesn't use technology at all, we struggled to find a way to consistently share what the family was up to. We also all live in different places across the Uk so it's difficult to see him as often as we would like.

The monthly Taletrove newsletter, delivered straight to his door, has been the perfect solution. It includes all the photos and updates from the family, giving him a precious, hand-held way to keep in touch. Seeing his face light up when he receives his personal update, knowing exactly what his grandkids and great-grandkids are doing, is truly priceless.

I sincerely hope more people discover this amazing business and help spread the love. Highly, highly recommended!

Fantastic.

This is a brilliant idea & it's also really good in reality. From receiving his first Taletrove Dad now looks forward to his monthly edition. Whenever we visit Dad & tell him what the family have been up to he immediately says "I'll see that in my newsletter". He asks us all to go through it again with him whenever we visit. We have recommended Taletrove to the care home manager too. At £7 a month it's excellent value too. Its easy to set up the WhatsApp group & that means that anyone in the group can send photos & articles rather than it having to be the same person all the time.

I'm so glad I came accross Taletrove

I'm so glad I came accross Taletrove. My elderly uncle and aunt have started receiving the newletters and they are loving it! They dont use computers or smart phones so keeping in touch had become difficult especially with my uncle having dementia. We cant visit them often due to distance and my cousins live in Holland, so it's been so nice to set up a spcial WhatsApp group to share our pictures and stories which then get printed and posted to our uncle and aunt. It's easy to do and Sam is always on hand if there are any queries and to give us a friendly nudge to remind us of deadlines! My aunt describes receiving the newsletter each month as 'a joy' !

It’s such a stress-free way to keep everyone updated, and I’m so glad I found them. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to share their stories without having to do all the design and tech work themselves!

I've been away in Tazania and tried this out for keeping older relatives updated with my adventures. A really nice idea to have something physical delivered into their hands, especially given they're not tech-savvy.

Fantastic idea bringing so much joy to my parents!

The arrival of our first family newsletter has bought untold enjoyment to my elderly parents in a format they are most comfortable with - it's lovely to see them catching up with grandchildren scattered around the world and showing all their friends! The printed monthly newsletter from Taletrove is so easy for us all to feed into, just dropping photos and captions into a WhatsApp group chat and Taletrove does the rest. Getting the monthly newsletter on email too means I can print out extra copies to build a concise, printed archive of family life in the absence of good old camera roll and photo albums.
Thank you so much and we will definitely be subscribing annually!

Fabulous way of updating the grandparents

Taletrove as a company have been very easy to use and communicate with.
We have a WhatsApp group set up with Taletrove that my kids can send pictures/ messages to that get printed in a monthly newsletter for my 80 year old father. Its a great way for him to stay up to date with what the family have been up to. He is already looking forward to the next edition

Loving Taletrove!

I've been sending my nan updates each month through Taletrove, keeping her up to date with the grandkids progress. She doesn't do technology, and having a physical, more personal letter for her to read from family, I believe, brings her so much joy. She even keeps all the copies in a special drawer for her to reflect on - watching her family grow. I'm so pleased!

What a great idea to help keep my Mum informed !

What a great idea! My elderly Mum lives 200 miles away and is no longer able to use her laptop to keep in touch with what I and my family are doing via Facebook and so the monthly magazine is a brilliant way of keeping her up to date. It's incredibly easy to upload photos and "blurbs" for inclusion in the magazine.
