Worried you've never done anything creative before? Don't be!

✅ No experience needed
✅ All materials included
✅ Friendly, experienced tutors
✅ Beginners always welcome

Just turn up 5-10 minutes before we start and we'll pop the kettle on. Tea, coffee and a warm welcome are all part of the experience.

With pottery, silver jewellery, fused glass, painting, floristry, needle felting, crochet and so much more, there's something for everyone.

Come on your own, bring a friend, treat your mum, drag your sister along, surprise your partner, or buy a workshop as a gift. However you come, you'll be made very welcome. Many people arrive not knowing anyone and leave having had a fantastic evening with a room full of new faces.

Why not give it a try? You might just discover your new favourite hobby.

💍 Bar Ring Workshop with the brilliant Kate from Hunt & Peck 💍
What a fab night on Monday at our Bar Ring Workshop!
With expert guidance from Kate from Hunt & Peck, our lovely group learned how to saw, shape, file, texture and polish sterling silver to create their own stunning bar rings. No experience needed – just a willingness to have a go and get creative!
As you can see from the photos, everyone produced beautiful, unique pieces and left wearing jewellery they'd made themselves. There's something pretty special about being able to say, "I made this!"
A huge thank you to Kate for another fantastic workshop and to everyone who came along and made it such a lovely evening.
Keep an eye on our page for future jewellery workshops – they always book up quickly! ✨

Well... the day has arrived! 😳

Today Oscar and I are running the Manchester 10K for Alzheimer's Society.

Oscar is young, fit and ready for it. I, on the other hand am not and wondering whose bright idea this was! 😂

We're doing this in memory of Oscar's Grandad, and for all the families affected by Alzheimer's and dementia.

If you'd like to sponsor us, we'd be incredibly grateful. Every donation helps support vital research and support services for those living with dementia and their loved ones.

Wish us luck,I think I'm going to need it! And hoping I make it round
