Fun with felt flowers gives beginners all the basic information to learn felting around a resist. In the three and a half hours, students will make two different flowers, using different techniques, along with different centres. Workshops start at 10am. I can teach up to nine people here and I can also travel within 20 miles if someone wants a group of friends (minimum 5 participants) in their own house or school. Fabulous idea for a hen party! Please note, though, I do charge mileage. If you have a larger group (say WI or class parents) I am happy to run workshops for up to 20 people in your own venue. My workshops are not timetabled, so there is a great deal of flexibility on dates - just get in touch and we'll sort out a day to suit us both!Please also check out my other listings for Workshops in a Wallet. These include Fun with Felt Flowers and Gone to Seed at Home, covering much of what you would learn with me here in West Horsley, as well as newer workshops - Loving Lavender and Creepies and Crawlies. While I won't be able to answer queries as they arise, I will be happy to answer emailed questions if you have any as you progress through the workshop instructions or you can telephone me between 9.30am and 4pm. Please note I cannot teach children without a responsible adult accompanying them and both must be booked on the course. What's included in the price? All materials are included and brooch pins/necklace ribbons for the finished flowers. Additional small packs of felt will be available at a nominal cost Tea and coffee are included. There is a reliable taxi service from Horsley station for about a fiver or I can collect just 3 people! Cancellation policy Easy - Cancellation and a full refund can be obtained up to 2 weeks before the course starts

If you love singing you'll want to improve. And the truth is we all have something to improve when it comes to singing. I can help you find out what you can do differently so that using your voice will feel easier and then we will keep working towards your vocal development and repertoire expansion. This feeling of freeing your voice and reaching it's potentials is more than rewarding. Singing lessons can do that!

Wild Christmas Wreath Making Workshop

One to one writing development and support from a professional writing coach and experienced teacher and writer. Perfect for script or novel.

In this course you’re invited to challenge limiting beliefs around ageing and to work towards clarity of life-purpose. In each session we show a series of short videos from experienced elders that are at the core of The Power in Ageing. After each video, an expert facilitator will invite you to reflect and explore your own responses to the key issues raised. You can then share (if you wish) or actively listen to others in a small facilitated group.  There are also some optional activities that are engaging or fun. By bringing your own life experience and wisdom, you explore how you can enjoy each day in the present and live a fulfilled life in the future. In past courses, participants have found this revolutionary approach to ageing to be both beneficial and enjoyable.   This is a safe programme that is tried and tested and is designed for people in their forties through to their seventies and above. It’s for people of all faiths or of no faith. There will be a couple of 5 minute break in each session so you can stay fresh and focused on the programme. We provide some Power of Ageing reading material after each session to help you get the most out of the course. (optional) We also offer an optional one-to-one follow up call after the course has finished.   £45 for all 3 sessions   "It's hugely important for me as an older man to re-engage with my peers, and with this time of life, positively. Life-stage offers me a creative, safe and beneficial way to do that." DAVID PUGSLEY  "I attended the power of ageing course and was amazed to learn the different paths the attendees had taken to reach our age, how we'd all coped with the hurdles life had put in front of us. Each session the time just flew by because the topics were so interesting." JENNY KIRTON
