J Hudson & Co Whistles Ltd

Make great talking piece key rings as well as whistles. Fantastic.

Bought a Shepherd's whistle. Had to google how to use it and I still can't make it work. I didn't know you needed a degree in how to whistle.

Brilliant tour of a very historic Birmingham Whistle Factory which has been going strong for over 140 years.

It's a very interesting business place.Very antique place

I have a J. HUDSON & CO 1916 ( PATENT. 5727.08 ) whistle, I found it in my backyard when i was 8 year old, till now its with me and still perfectThanksAnkitJaipur ( Rajasthan )India

I would just like to share my AMAZEMENT with this company! While yes, at first I was skeptical when I purchased their 1916 Trench Whistle, I am now astonished at how true to life it is, and the sound it produces! When I then learned that this company is the original producer of the WWI Whistle, I knew I had to learn more! I then head to their website-where yet again I was shocked to see how much they really care about their products and business. When you have a feature that lets you actually HEAR the sound of the whistle you are about to purchase, you know it must be a good product! These people produce whistles-nothing more and nothing less, and they do a smashing job! 5/5!

Fascinating factory. Coming up to 150 anniversary. Whistles still made from brass in traditional way.Also plastic ones made in eco friendly way.Whole business, although in old buildings, is geared up to be environmentally responsible from recyclable packaging to scrap material recycling / reuse and safe removal of waste chemicals.Our Stourbridge U3A was treated to a brilliant tour and talk by Simon Topman.If you get the chance it is a must have experience.

I was given a J Hudson whistle when I passed my junior fire officer exams many years ago and still have it.I'm just watching 'Made in Britain' and I'm really pleased to see that the factory is still going.It's lovely to see our heritage and skills are being preserved.Well done

A really worthwhile visit full of interest and hugely entertaining.
