Can’t recommend Ashley and her team enough! I did the grooming course there over a 2 weeks period and it was amazing always there to help with ANY questions I had.

Very knowledgeable with many years experience! Very welcoming! Honestly don’t have the words to say Thankyou enough! With everything I’ve learned I’ve been able to set up on my own and this wouldn’t have been possible if I hadn’t of done the course! If you’re wanting to do a grooming course I would one hundred percent be going to Ashley!.
