Question Is there anyone in the UK who does chainmaille classes?

Hi!

I’m quite new to the art and think I would benefit from in person lessons. I was wondering if there’s anyone based in or around the home counties who teach it?

Thank you in advance!

I know there's a company in Scotland that we partnered with for supplies and they do classes at events too. However if you ever need some help, I'm happy to jump on zoom when I have some spare time.

I'm Scottish and have been mailleing for about 15 years so can probably help as well if you need it.

For rivetted maille, Phil Parkes Maille in Cardiff does day classes and I believe Nick Checksfield also does classes across South East England. Both are very friendly and I'm sure would be up for a chat!
