Mrs Kelly Krafts - Tutor & Assistant
Kelly Truscott
My name is Kelly and I regularly assist Mrs Blossom with her workshops. I've known Mrs Blossom for quite a few years now, we previously worked together at a local junior school and became good friends. I enjoy working in education and helping children achieve their full potential, currently I am a Learning Support assistant in year 6. I've worked in childcare for over 20 years as a nanny and various roles in nursery and primary school settings . I love all things crafty, so enjoy the opportunity to assist Mrs Blossom when ever I can.

Assistant
Grace Stares
Hello, my name is Grace. I help out at the workshops mainly during the school holidays. I am currently at college studying Psychology, Sociology, English Literature. I love crafting and being creative in my spare time, for instance making cards and cross-stitching, which I was able to incorporate into my textiles GCSE. Other hobbies of mine include playing board games, geocaching and reading. I love rolling my sleeves up and getting involved with the crafts that the children are doing – I sometimes wish I was doing them myself!!! It’s always nice to see new faces and watch the creative sparks ignite. Each day is never the same!

Assistant
Matt Blossom
Mr Blossom Makes! Mr Blossom is husband to Mrs Blossom. He works for the NHS and before that he also ran workshops, not of the crafty kind though - his were all about circus skills and magic and this sometimes creeps in when he helps out Mrs B at her workshops and holiday clubs. Mr Blossom, or Matt as he likes to be known, was previously an entertainer. He worked for Disney, Legoland, Butlins and up and down the land for 25 years. His father was a boxer. His mother was a cocker spaniel. He lives by the sea with a wife, child and parrot.
