Hello! We are Goodheart Farm Animal Sanctuary - home to around 350 rescued farm animals, all with unique backgrounds and personalities. This is your opportunity to learn all about farm animal husbandry, animal welfare and what it takes to be a top-notch animal sanctuary in the UK. Plus, you'll be able to meet, stroke and feed our friendly residents including cattle, sheep, chickens, alpaca, pigs and ponies. We'll welcome you with a hot drink in our classroom where we will introduce our charity's work and hopes for the future. (30 min) We'll then take a leisurely tour around our beautiful 92-acre site. This usually takes 90 minutes, depending on how interactive the animals are feeling on the day! Finally, we'll ask if you would like to feed our pigs some homemade 'piggy ice lollies'. (30 mins). Other things to note: Social distancing will be in place for the duration of your visit. Face coverings are to be worn when indoors. Visitors must be comfortable walking over varied terrain. Pregnant women will not be able to interact with any of our animals due to health and safety reasons. This experience may have to be cancelled at short notice due to ongoing covid-19 guidelines or in the case of bad weather.

I specialise in slipware pottery thrown on a potters wheel (of which there are 4). The pots are decorated with the coloured liquid clay (slip) that provides a wonderful fluid palette to create a wide range of decorative styles. The great benefit of this course is that by using slips we are able to make and decorate the pots in the same lesson as the pots are decorated in their raw, unfired state. You therefore don't need to return to decorate the pots at another lesson, unless you want to of course! The one-off lesson is suitable for adult absolute beginners as well as those revisiting skills that may have got rusty. If you have a particular project you want to try out (e.g. flower pot, mug, jug) then we will discuss how you can achieve that in the time available but feel free to let me know beforehand with ideas / pictures. Pottery is a very broad subject and it can sometimes be difficult to know where to start, but if you just want to “have a go at pottery” then we can generally fit in a go at throwing some pots of different styles / forms. The aim will be to have made at least one decorated pot you can either take home (in raw clay state) at the end of the lesson or wait for it to be fired (approx. 3 weeks) for collection or posted at cost. Other things to note Clay can be a messy business! I have aprons and towels but you may want to consider the following: • Clothes - the oldest you have. We’ll be using earthenware clay which is quite unforgiving on clothing. • Nails - best if cut but not a real issue.

Potter's wheel experience For the time being, we're keeping class sizes to a minimum of x4 participants per instructor. We're blessed with ample studio space and will social distance participants accordingly. On arrival you'll be offered a warm (socially distanced!) welcome from either Jon or his wife and fellow maker Sarah. Following an easy to follow, five step potter's wheel demonstration, you'll each take a turn to throw one or two pots on the wheel. Needless to say, the activity makes for a fab spectator sport so you'll have great fun watching each other wrestling the spinning mud! Your professional potter will be with you, at a safe distance for the whole of your experience, gently guiding you through the five easy steps to success. The whole experience lasts 1.5 hrs and if you are fortunate enough to have produced x2 pots, you'll be asked to choose your favourite to be fired and glazed. (If you cant decide, the extra pot can be purchased at 1/2 price) You wont be able to take your creation away on the day, it will need to dry thoroughly before it goes in the kiln. Your pot will be fired twice, glazed and available for collection from the Pottery approx. 4-6 weeks later. P+P can be arranged at £5 per pot (UK)

Other dates and times available on request. In this half-day class you will have 1.5 hours on a pottery wheel (with a wheel each) with tuition from Chris to help you throw and decorate a few bowls each. In the other half of the experience you will have 1.5 hours of glass fusing taster class with Sarah in which you will create a few pieces of glass eg: jewellery, coasters, sun-catchers, Xmas tree decorations. In both pottery and glass, your pieces will then be fired in the kilns after the experience has finished - you can arrange collection or postage (if in UK) when pieces are ready. We are quite flexible on dates and times for classes so please ask if you'd like to schedule a different date. We also run whole-day classes and individual glass or pottery classes too - many options available. Other things to note Wear appropriate clothing for getting a bit messy in pottery. We do provide aprons but you might get a bit of clay on you.
