What a fantastic week! Thank you so much Sarah and Emma, I loved every minute. We covered so many topics and learnt so much. It was a great mix of theory and practice. We were spoilt with such beautiful flowers for use in the course too. Thank you also for our fab aprons, tool kit, and of course the delicious daily cake too. The course has provided a wonderful foundation for the start of my floristry career.
Excellent! When you initially sign up for the course it seems like a lot of money, but when you get here its worth every penny. The course is a perfect mix of practical and theory. Although the logistics of floristry feels like a heavy area, it was important to show the reality and I think that's what I like most about the course: It's very realistic. The course is great for beginners and even for people like me who didn't know the name of most plants. I would recommend this course to anyone - Thank you!
After attending a course in 2017 I know that the teaching would be of a very high standard - and this week exceeded my expectations! I have already started doing some floristry work, but lacked confidence and knowledge to develop further. This course is ideal for anyone wanting to get an insight into all aspects of floristry - and I will return home ready to develop a business plan and focus on the areas fo floristry I'm interested in. But more importantly I will book some future courses so that I can develop my skills and confidence and I know the teaching will be excellent. Thank you to the three of you!!
I have loved this week course. The variety of flower arrangements which we have been taught and the beauty and quality of flowers have been just amazing! This has been the most fantastic week and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone thinking of a career change or to top up their floristry skills. Sarah and Emma have made it fun, insightful, and we have learnt so many usable skills which I cannot wait to put into practice.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is thinking of changing their Careers. I am looking forward to following my dreams now!
So pleased I picked this course above others! Really competitively priced and especially for all the materials you use and take away at the end of the week. The location is easy to get to. The course is so well prepared and enthusiastically taught. You can tell the tutors love their profession and their experience in the trade is invaluable
Amazing! Couldn't imagine how fantastic this could have been - it's incredible! I have learnt loads. Great tutors, so friendly, fun and full of knowledge. Can't wait to attend another course. Highly recommend. I leave energised and educated."

Great communication from beginning to end. Sarah, Jo and Elle are amazing teachers - everything fully explained. Step by step. A wonderful opportunity to learn the underlying basics of floristry to adapt through different designs. A great way to meet likeminded lovely women. Thank you!
It was the happiest, most amazing week. I learnt so much and am so excited to begin my floristry journey. I was this to now be a part of my life and I have the belief now I can do it and know where to start - Thank you!
Absolutely amazing. This course was everything and more! Great way to meet like minded people. Tutors are super knowledgeable and friendly which made learning easier. Walking with alot more confidence and a "starter" skill set. Flowers used were of a great quality and the tools & bag are super useful. Can't thank you all enough, you're awesome!
