Dumfries

We believe in community, creativity and the benefits of making with clay. Clay Works Studios Dumfries is a Ceramic/Pottery workshop which provides a friendly, informal and supportive environment where everyone is welcome to come and get hands on with Clay, learn new Ceramic techniques and/or develop existing skills. portrait.jpg LAUREN TAYLOR Lauren graduated from Glasgow School of Art with BA (hons) Ceramics in 2000. Following this she worked for Dalton Pottery in Dumfries & Galloway, assisting people to throw pots and helping with the production of their slipcast ceramics. Whilst traveling in Australia she worked for various potters making functional Pottery on the wheel. On return Lauren moved to Totnes in Devon to work as an Apprentice at Dartington Pottery. Here she gained in depth practical knowledge of pottery workshop practice . Lauren went on to work as Production Thrower for Dartington Pottery until she moved to North Devon to work as Ceramics technician and recreational Teacher at North Devon College.

Instagram. @clayworksstudiodumfries JENNY FINCH Born in 1962 in Essex, always knowing I wanted to lead an artistic life. I followed my wonderful art foundation course at Colchester with a degree in ceramics at Birmingham Poly. I founded Dalton Pottery in 1989 with my late husband Geoff and we enjoyed over 25 happy years working together and raising two brilliant sons. They say that the only thing you can be sure of in life, is that it will keep changing. Some of those changes are very hard, and I have found the one thing that always gets me through those challenges is my creativity and the creative community. Chris and Lauren have built such a wonderful resource at Clayworks and I am proud to be part of the team. One of the most rewarding things about spending a lifetime understanding the medium of clay, is passing on those skills to those who are just discovering how meditative and rewarding it is to work with. Whether painting, potting, sculpting, writing, or teaching I hope to never stop pushing the boundaries and challenging myself to be the best I can. 120777122_2839475512940495_7861241450601659473_n.jpg CHRIS TAYLOR After graduating from the University of the West of England in 1999 Chris became an apprentice at Dartington Pottery, Totnes.

Margate

I am a qualified Grade A ADI (Approved Driving Instructor) and, although it is not mandatory for me to be a qualified instructor I feel that the knowledge I have gained whilst training to be an ADI will greatly benefit my customers, I also hold a C+E (Class 1) HGV licence. I have owned horses for over 30 years and ran a successful horse transport business, transporting all types of horses and ponies across the country. Customers who undertake a towing course with Driver Training will benefit from being able to do their training in a comfortable car which has all the modern conveniences (heated seat, air-con, etc.), whilst towing an Ifor Williams 510 trailer which will replicate a vehicle of similar size if they are transporting horses or want to tow a caravan. If you are wanting to become a paramedic, ambulance technician or drive ambulances over 3.5 tonnes you will need a C1 category on your license ( if you passed your driving test after January 1998 you will need to do an additional test). Also horseboxes between 3.5 and 7.5 tonnes require this license and motorhomes and large vans. Driver Training run courses which cover all your training including the 3a (reversing) and 3b (on road drive) tests, advice is also available for D2, medical (D4), and theory tests. Based in Chesterfield we also cover Sheffield, Nottingham and surrounding areas. Our C1 Training and test is carried out in an Iveco Daily 7 tonne van and all C1 courses include both the 3a and 3b test fees. Liz Driver
