Our Story

A warm welcome to Ash and Co. Workshops
We are a husband and wife team with a life-long love for hand-crafted furniture and objects. This passion led to the creation of Ash & Co. Workshops and our woodworking and DIY courses. We wish to be able to share the joy of woodwork, love of traditional craftsmanship, and the satisfaction felt every time you make something you can truly say you’re proud of.
Woodworking Courses and DIY Workshops
Our relaxed, informal courses are all project-based so that students will go home with an extended knowledge of woodwork as well as a lovely item that they made with their own hands. Most of these projects are suitable for complete beginners and no previous woodworking experience is necessary. Just a desire to get stuck-in and learn! Our programme includes many evening and weekend sessions designed to fit around people's busy modern lives. We look forward to welcoming as many people as possible to our workshop, of all ages, genders and skill levels, to enjoy creating their own lovely Ash and Co projects.

Our unique woodcraft workshops for kids lets their imaginations run wild as they design and build their own projects. Our Mini-Maker sessions have been a huge hit as families enjoy quality time making together. It’s marvellous to see the kids creations come to life and their pride at what they have as achieved. They even get so engaged in the creative process they forget that they have had several hours without a screen!
