We supply all the materials for our community to take part, as well as trying to create great atmosphere in our lantern making spaces.

• Our spaces get quite busy, you should be calm in a hectic community arts space.

• You should be either registered with Disclosure Scotland or be able to be disclosed through the Barring Service.
