Overview

Join us on this fun and relaxed course led by creative florist Louise Bradshaw. Louise trained at the Covent Garden Academy of Flowers in London and her floral installations have been displayed at prestigious venues such as St James' Palace and Winchester Cathedral Close. Over the duration of this course, your tutor will cover traditional and contemporary sustainable floristry techniques, and will also include aspects of her own style - using seasonal blooms in natural, unstructured arrangements.

Please note that there will be no class on Wednesday 19th March.
