Burton Manor College, Neston, Cheshire
From 2005-2011, I've taught a number of jewellery making classes at Burton Manor College... but due to its funding being stopped by Liverpool Council the college has now closed down.

"I had never made jewellery before and managed to make 2 bracelets & earrings. It was quite fast moving, but Samantha was always ready to show you things again if you couldn't remember. Lots of designs already made to give you ideas. Well worth doing."

"I really enjoyed the class and making something that looked good was very satisfying. Samantha is a very good teacher."

"Within 10 minutes I'd made a pair of earrings that I'd be proud to wear to the pub! Great course, very inspiring, I'm on a roll!!"

"Absolutely fantastic, I'm hooked!"

It was requisitioned during the 2nd world war and then became in 1948 one of the first adult education colleges in the country, running day and weekend residential courses. It offered a diverse mix of courses from tango weekends to silversmithing.
