An exciting day yesterday . Had a gathering of students at an Afternoon Tea at Clarke’s Farm to say Happy Retirement to our Head Tutor Geraldine. She will be handing over Wellhead Upholstery to Daniel Worthington. Dan has been with Wellhead Upholstery for 9 years now. He came to Classes at the age of 19. Geraldine saw that he had the natural skills to be an excellent Upholsterer and invited him to be an Apprentice. After 3 years training he became an Assistant as well as starting up his own Upholstery business. Gradually over the last 6 years Dan has been given most of the responsibility of the Upholstery and Soft Furnishing side of the business. After Geraldine decided that at 70 years old she should retire especially with the happy news that she is to be a Grandmother soon, Dan was asked to take over the teaching side of the Business and will be teaching the Monday and Tuesday Classes at Scopwick Village Hall. Geraldine is happy to leave everything in Dan’s very capable hands.
