Fleen Doran 2 years on

I completed my year-long apprenticeship with Micki Schloessingk two years ago on the Adopt a Potter Scheme. It was fantastic training for me and gave me all the skills I needed to set up as a potter. I have since continued to work at Bridge Pottery and for the past year I have enjoyed my post as Studio Manager at Bridge Pottery. Since my apprenticeship I have also ran evening pottery classes and set up as a self-employed happy potter :) I am now relocating to the Forest of Dean where I will continue to pot and run workshops.

Thanks to everyone who supports AAP! Having been an AAP apprentice myself I can say its a brilliant scheme and I am now enjoying my new post as Trustee.
