EASTNOR Pottery is taking part in the Craft Council's 'Hey Clay!' initiative.

The event will give people the chance to enjoy free pottery workshops.

Eastnor potters Jon and Sarah Williams say they are 'delighted' to get involved.

Mr Williams, who is also known fondly as "The Flying Potter" said: "As the Great Pottery Throw Down comes to an end, the Crafts Council’s Hey Clay! weekend gives people the opportunity to get creative with clay.

"Were calling our event Freewheeling II, a nod to a similar event we hosted at the pottery in December."

Participants will be able to take their creations away on the day to dry and paint at home or, for a small fee leave it at the pottery to be fired and glazed.

The event will run from April 7 to April 9.

Time slots of fifteen minutes each are available all weekend but pre-booking is essential on 01531 633886 or email admin@eastnorpottery.co.uk to reserve a place.
