Visiting the Residents & Giving a Pole Lathe Demonstration

It was really lovely to be invited to the Hickathrift House Care Home in Marshland St James where we were able to meet some of the residents and chat to them about what we do here in the Blended Monkey Studios.

We also set up the pole lathe outside and gave everyone a demonstration on how it is used. Some of the residents remembered using tools like this in their previous trades. Everyone was very welcoming, and we hope to return in the future.



We offer woodturning & pottery as creative therapy experiences in our Blended Monkey Crafts studios in Upwell; we're also happy to visit charities, care homes and schools when time allows so we can demonstrate our crafts and give others a chance to have a go too.
