I don't know I'm afraid, sorry.
Again worth calling Monday I should say.
All the best.

Hi there.
It's probably just because term hasn't started yet. I imagine its next Monday, so worth calling then. The Tuesday 1-3:30 session generally has spaces left.
Good luck, hope to see you there as I'm signed up for another term.

Hi Huggers
I dont imagine it's too late, but I guess you've missed two weeks of the course, and I don't know if they pro-rata the fees. Best to call the centre I think. All the best. You'll want to bring down a drop in seat/chair if you do join next week.

Hi Zeban
I'm afraid in this instance you're wrong. Let me explain..
We are at the start of a new academic year, and as such everyone, including repeat learners, are considered "new" students and so the maximum anyone has to pay for this course/term is ?97 I quoted. In addition I believe there may be other concessions available for people on benefits.
All the best

Just a final post to encourage anyone interested in upholstery to come down for a 1pm start tomorrow (Tuesday 2nd), it's only ?97 for the whole term (9 weeks).

Hi there
My neighbour has done this course several times, and introduced me. You can read the syllabus on here - http://www.southwark.gov.uk/downloads/download/2481/southwark_council_adult_learning_service
Definitely worth looking into for next term. All the best

Fab news, you'll love it.

This is my second term of an upholstery course at Thomas Carlton Centre in Peckham run by a lady called Jan Dodd - an experienced upholsterer and patient teacher. I am a student on her course (no vested interest).
The Monday eve and Tuesday morning sessions of this course are full, so I went today for the Tuesday afternoon session (1-3.30pm). There are only 4 of us on the course which is incredible... these courses cost around ?3,000 normally, and this one is ?97 for the whole term (10 sessions of 3.5 hours). I'm giving it a genuine thumbs up and would encourage anyone with an interest in furniture to come and join the class.
You can be a total beginner or a experienced hand, Jan's teaching is individual, and you'll certainly come away with one or two upholstery projects, and the skills to complete more on your own if you have the interest. Next class is next Tuesday 2nd Oct at 1pm.
Call The Thomas Carlton Centre on 0207 358 2100.

Furniture Upholstery - Spaces on a great/inexpensive local course

Classes are held at the Thomas Carlton Centre in Peckham, and run by an experienced upholsterer and patient teacher. I am a student on her course.
Currently Tuesday afternoon session (1-3.30pm) has space for new learners. Anywhere else these types of courses cost thousands, but this one is only ?97 for the whole term (10 sessions of 3.5 hours) if you're a new learner. I'm giving it a genuine thumbs up and would encourage anyone with an interest in furniture to come and join the class.
You can be a total beginner or a experienced hand, Jan's teaching is individual, and you'll come away with one or two upholstery projects, and the skills to complete more on your own if you have the interest. Next class is tomorrow 8th Jan at 1pm, or you may be able to join in the following week if that's too soon. You'll need to bring a chair with a "drop-in" seat - eg like a dining table chair with a seat you can pull out and take with you.
Call The Thomas Carlton Centre on 0207 358 2100 to book for Tuesday pm's class.
