MAIRI COLLINS JEWELLERY


I'm Mairi, and I love running workshops!
I'm the face behind Mairi Collins Jewellery, and I love helping people of all ages and abilities learn new skills.
I have 6+ years experience of community engagement and workshops in all kinds of exciting venues! I have an active PVG certificate and experience working with assisted needs groups of children and adults.
