What previous participants have said 

Thank you so much for all your assistance and patience and, of course, all the treats, throughout the weekend.  I really don’t think I’ve ever enjoyed a class as much as that one & I felt on a real high when I got home.  Helen B

Thank you so much for the amazing course last weekend! It was really inspiring, incredibly well organised and informative and wonderfully paced. Emily

What a wonderful day you gave us and such a lovely way to teach us, a real treat, you made something so complicated seem so simple. Jonathan

The day is so much more than just book making…it is friendship, community and a shared love of making things together. Amanda

What a wonderful workshop! Such a happy day and so much learning. Simply, you were excellent, and with so much kindness and lots of generosity. Caroline

We had an afternoon session with Helen as a team building event at our company, on site, and it was a fantastic experience. It was a great way to spend quality time together and we came away truly amazed by what we could achieve with Helen's help. We work with books every day, but we certainly look at them differently now that we've made our own from scratch. The team would absolutely love to do this again. - Supply Chain Operations team, Cambridge University Press & Assessment
