Crafty Staff Training

Last Tuesday (26.02.2019) our Day Service Manager, Mala, and Outdoor Instructor, Lee, delivered some copper and antler training to our staff team. The training was well attended by around 16/17 staff and there was a pleasant and positive atmosphere in the building!

The training evening was a great way for the staff to strengthen their craft skills and become more efficient specifically in making jewellery using copper, pewter, antler and pine resin.

On arrival, the staff made a cuppa and then got sat down. Lee and Mala then showed the group some examples of the jewellery they had made before with Day Service Groups.

Dave, hard at work!

The staff then took a few minutes to draw a design on a piece of paper, that they would like to make.

Clare, getting stuck in.

They then created the jewellery and they looked fab!

The staffs fabulous jewellery!

Now the staff are able to deliver this training to our Day Service Adventurers and the students that are part of our Education provision.
