“It is great. I am a qualified teacher but I decided to go back to running workshops to try to give children the chance to explore different techniques and materials,” she explained.

Sessions are for a maximum of ten children, aged four to 13. Visit www.facebook.com/handsoncommunity or email Hanna at hanskibol@yahoo.co.uk for more information.
