TEACHING, TRAINING & MENTORING

Lindsey has designed and delivered several successful masterclasses and holiday programmes as part of our widening participation outreach initiative at the college. We have been able to take advantage of her extensive experience as an Arts Award Advisor and embed the Bronze Award into our programme. The feedback from the participants has been entirely positive. The content of her uniquely designed activities is engaging, challenging and enjoyable.
