What an amazing, detailed, empowering and personal course. Caroline is so lovely and friendly. I've been wanting to go to something like this for a while as I was sick of waiting for the husband to do it and YouTube videos just weren't giving me the confidence I needed. Caroline was able to cater the course to our needs and really cared about what you wanted to learn. She didn't just talk at you! She genuinely wants to help you and keep in touch to see that you are still on your DIY journey. They are definitely worth the price. She doesn't buy you the cheapest tools and materials or waste your time chatting about irrevelant stuff. You get to use a range of them and work out for yourself what you would prefer to use.

It’s not brute strength, it really is technique! Very inclusive and a safe space to ask those questions ✅ I learned what to use, when to use, why to use …and also practiced how to use. What do I need? I feel very confident in tackling my DIY. Caroline has many years of experience and uses her real life experiences for the training.
