Sally teaches traditional skills and historic crafts at a range of venues each year.
Usually these need to be booked directly with the host site, but occasionally these are bookable direct. Current courses are listed above and any that are bookable direct will have their own entry on this page.
Please get in touch if you have any questions or if your organisation would like to book a workshop either for your own use or for the wider public.
