Due to the current global situation around COVID-19 and the most recent UK Government advice, I will be contacting people who have booked on to my Bonds Lifestyle workshops with information and updates as soon as I know what will be happening in regard to the workshop. For information about The Farthing Gallery workshops and those to be held at Sew Me Something, please contact the venue (or get in touch with me if you are unable to contact them).
All workshop venues are currently closed in line with UK Government guidelines. Please contact me via the contact page (under more...) if you want more information about booking workshops when they re-start in the future. Spaces can not currently be booked via my website.
Thank you so much for your support and understanding at this time.
