Professional hands-on training in traditional leathercraft

For sessions lasting up to 4 hours, there will be a 15–20 minute break. For sessions lasting more than 4 hours, there will be a 20–30 minute lunch break included in the session.

There are two cafés nearby, free on-site parking, and WiFi is available throughout the workshop.

Complimentary tea, coffee and a selection of hot drinks will be available throughout your class, along with biscuits.

Leathercraft, machine and hand sewing, bag making and pattern making involve the use of specialist tools and materials. Depending on the course you have chosen, you may work with sharp tools, knives, strong adhesives and industrial sewing machines.

If you have any medical conditions, breathing difficulties or accessibility requirements that we should be aware of, please let us know as early as possible so that we can advise you accordingly and make any reasonable adjustments where possible.

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes, as most practical work will be carried out while standing at a high workbench.

On arrival, you will receive a full health and safety briefing, including guidance on the safe use of the studio, equipment and tools.

Our studio is located on the ground floor with three steps at the entrance. Unfortunately, due to space limitations, we are not currently wheelchair accessible in the workshop.
