Questions you may have

Do I need to bring anything?

Not really. I will provide design paper, a selection of design resources and colouring pencils but feel free to bring a notebook and any design inspiration. This might be a favourite image with colours you love, or patterns that inspire you. But please don’t stress about this, if you just turn up with some enthusiasm that works too.

What do I do for lunch?

We will have a break for lunch, You are more than welcome to bring a packed lunch or there is a little cafe across from us where you can get sandwiches, burgers, jackets potatoes and the like. Or if all else fails there is a Tesco extra 5 minutes drive away.

Are there refreshments available?

I’ve got plenty of tea and coffee (including decaf options) for folk, and there is always biscuits in the tin.

What times are the workshops?

Generally workshops are between 10am and go till about 4pm.
