Tariffs for weekly workshops

£19.00 per person for 2 hours + firing fee (£3/Kg)

Beginners

You will learn various hand-building techniques (pinching, modelling, slabbing, coiling) and make items such as a poppy, hanging ornaments, an owl, a tea-light holder, a snowman, a vase, a mug, a plant pot etc. Please note no potter's wheel is available.

T&Cs

TIME of SESSIONS and availability

Thursdays 10.30 - 12.30 & 7.15 - 9.15

COVID-19 safety: Hand gel will be provided - please make use of it when coming in and during sessions. Don't come if you're unwell, even if it seems to be mild cold symptoms. Also let me know ASAP if you're diagnosed with Covid after your visit to the workshop.

LOYALTY SCHEME: I’ll keep record of your

attendance. Every 8 session, you get a discount!

The ‘loyalty card’ is valid for a year from the date of your first session.


PAYMENT: It’s Pay-As-You-Go, but payment has to be at time of booking to secure your place.  Bank transfer is preferred. Paypal and bank card incur an additional fee of 50p per session. If you wish you may pay several sessions at once, they won't be linked to a specific date as long as as you use them within 12 months.

CANCELLATIONS: Unfortunately, I feel I have to introduce this policy as it is very inconvenient when people don’t turn up or cancel at a short notice. (Not applicable in case of Covid).

  • If you cancel less than 3 days in advance, you’ll get charged a £5 cancellation fee. If it's more than 3 days, there's no fee.

  • Repeated ‘no shows’ or same day cancellation will, unfortunately, result in the person being asked to find themselves another pottery class.
