Hive recognises that arts and crafts can be expensive, so we do everything that we can to make things affordable.
We offer a number of reduced fee places on all of our courses. Anybody on Universal Credit, Jobseeker’s Allowance or other low income benefits can make of us to three reduced fee places each year (one per term) – subject to availability.
On top of that we run a bursaries scheme to provide access to courses for those who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford them. In particular, the Christine Godfrey memorial bursary pays for a year’s worth of pottery courses for a talented newcomer, in memory of our wonderful friend Christine, who was a fixture in our pottery studio for many years.
We also run a number of supported drop-in sessions, for which no membership is required and which are free to attend:

If you’re not currently in work, why not join our free wellbeing and confidence-building sessions on Mondays at Shipley Library from 1.30pm.
