Feedback

"I felt so welcome and there was an amazing atmosphere at Carymoor. I felt a wonderful sense of belonging. My life has changed beyond anything I could have imagined since I came along to a course and subsequently became a volunteer. I could never thank you enough.’

Sadie, current volunteer
In more than 20 years of teaching this was the best trip I have ever taken children on – educational, fun and inspirational!

“This programme is a great way of teaching even very young children about recycling and inspiring them that they can take action to make a difference. Their enthusiasm and knowledge then gets taken home and, hopefully spread through their families and community. It is hugely important that the next generation has this input and gets into good habits as young citizens. Thank you.”

I was so impressed with what I had made and really inspired to work more with willow and make more baskets. I haven’t felt this motivated to craft in years!

Karen is an excellent tutor who steps in when asked if advice/help needed. Karen is great at boosting confidence and her tuition skills are excellent. The atmosphere was very friendly and supportive.
