Do you cover our area of Scotland?
Probably! Our core area is the Highlands council and Argyll council. We have done course on the Isle of Bute, Eigg, Iona and Skye. West on the mainland we cover Ardnamurchan, Lochaline, Kilchoan, Oban and Argyll. East to Aberdean, Inverness, Nairn and Elgin North to Wick and Thurso, then across to Ullapool, Applecross and Tongue. South to Edinburgh and Glasgow. We charge mileage but not travel time, even for the islands.
What size room?
We have delivered courses in workshops, barns, castles and stately homes; even forests and yurts. ​ All we need is enough room for every one the course to sit in small groups and still have space for a whiteboard per group. Electricity is useful but we can deliver a course with out. Access to a toilet is alway good.
We don't have space?
No problem your local knowledge will help us find a venue, a local hall, hotel or collaberating with other local business and organisations. Local venues often cost from about £85 to £150 a day. If you are near Fort William we often use Kilmallie Free Church, depending on the room hired this costs from £85 to £150 per day for a modern, spacouse venue with amazing views down the loch.
