- Lucy, family clay experience.
“What a fantastic day for all 4 of us. Alison pitched the day for my family perfectly from aged 8 to 52. We all enjoyed fun, learning and a great sense of achievement. Alison was a great teacher super chilled but kept us to the schedule - a natural teacher. Thank for a fab day.”
