Frequently asked questions

Do I need to bring anything?

All materials are provided so just bring your enthusiasm! There isn't a kitchen at the venue, so do bring a bottle of water and snacks if you'd like, there will also be a coffee break if you want to pop out for refreshments.

I can't come any more, can I get a refund?

I'm afraid not. I'm a one-woman show and it's too difficult to administer refunds and prepare properly. You're welcome to send a friend in your place if you can't attend - just pop me a message to let me know.

What's the accessibility like at the venue?

The workshop takes place upstairs at the Ayten Gasson Pop-Up shop on Duke's Lane and I'm afraid that there isn't a lift to the workshop space.
