maureen brown reviewed: Wood carving for beginners and improvers at Ness Botanic Gardens Cheshire

"I did this course at the end of January. It was great, John had so much patience and made no attempt to rush us. He explained everything clearly as we went along. I really enjoyed the whole course and learnt so much. I had never done any carving before so was a wee bit scared of making a mess of everything. If you enjoy making things or just messing about with wood, have a go at this course, I am sure you you won't regret it. Maureen Brown"
