Beetlefelt is an independent craft school set up by Carol Mowl so that she can continue her commitment to adult education by teaching in a way that focused on spontaneity: "you see the people in front of you and you think 'what do they want from this today?', and it's of the moment and at the moment, changing moments, flexibility.”

She and her partner Tim built the school studio by hand in her back garden so that the organisation could be independent and sustainable.

Sample crafts on the Beetlefelt Taster Day, Saturday 31 May. Choose from Paper Making, Crochet, Willow Weaving, Mosaic, Wood Block printing and Natural Dyeing.

Beetlefelt will introduce the directory to people on the Taster Day, and taking courses during the launch week.
