Course Review:
"I have been lucky enough to attend a few of the Textiles Skills Centre courses and they have all been absolutely fantastic. These courses have been an absolute game changer - I came away with so many ideas which I was able to put into practice immediately. 
Nicky provides so many examples of sketchbooks and final outcomes that you can see first hand how the skills being delivered translate to student work. The skills themselves are varied yet equally really accessible and she provides lots of suggestions on how to approach tight budgets. 
Nicky's enthusiasm and expertise is really inspiring and you can't wait to go away and try it all! The student results following the introduction of the projects developed off the back of these courses were outstanding and moderator feedback was really positive too."

As chief talent-spotter, Clare loves to discover memorable new characters, bold and unique voices, strong concepts and gripping storytelling. She represents picture books, middle-grade, teenage and YA. Clare is particularly looking for funny chapter books for younger readers at the moment, as well as contemporary MG, YA fantasy, romance, and rom coms, especially with underrepresented protagonists.

Saying something important that you think others won&#39;t want to hear? Standing up for yourself and sharing your thoughts or needs? You are NOT alone! Having worked in a support role for a decent sized employer in the UK for over a decade, we KNOW that this is a challenge for many: a silent struggle that often goes untackled, unsupported and unresolved. Worse still, this is not a status quo without cost. It costs teams, departments and businesses in lost talent, efficiency and poor mental health. It costs YOU too; stress, anxiety, overwork and challenging relationships.</strong></strong></h3><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">We know there&#39;s a better way and we&#39;d like to share the core concepts with you! We won&#39;t be telling you what to do; that won&#39;t work. What we will be doing is sharing insights, tools and strategies that will allow you to build your confidence and develop your own &#39;tool kit&#39; for the trickier conversations in your life.</h3><h4 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">We&#39;ll be exploring:</h4><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Essential information about humans and stuff that&#39;s hard to hear</em></em><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Getting clear about the issue</em></em><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">ABC Messaging</em></em><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Moving forward</em></em><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Here&#39;s what some of our delegates thought:</strong></strong></p><blockquote fr-original-style="" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(94, 53, 177); color: rgb(94, 53, 177); margin-left: 0px; padding-left: 5px; box-sizing: border-box;">&#39;5 stars!

I will forever recommend webinars from The Happy Human and look forward to any further upcoming webinars.&#39;</blockquote><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">This is an interactive workshop to give you the opportunity to think, explore and share your challenges and thoughts. You&#39;ll work in very small groups and we&#39;ll be considerate and respectful of personal preferences throughout. We know that&#39;s tough for some, but here&#39;s the rub - communication is something we can only get better at if we practice it out loud. We hope you&#39;ll give us a chance to show you what a difference a little support and kindness can make!</h3><h4 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></h4><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"></p>
