“What makes this place so special are the people who work there, and the culture of the place. The course is immersive, non-competitive and supportive. I arrived thinking I knew a fair bit about woodworking. I left feeling competent, but realising I had so much more to learn.”

“Before starting the full-time course, I had very little knowledge of woodwork or making. My time at the Centre shaped the beginning of developing my own personal style and gave me the confidence to be a woodworker. The Full-Time Furniture Makers’ Programme gave me a solid foundation to build onto — and has opened up many different avenues in my career.”
