Check out Stock Florist's new flower school in Essex

We were lucky enough to head down to Stock Florist in July to sip some bubbly and check out its fabulous new flower school. Located in the picturesque village of Stock, just five minutes from Chelmsford and Billericay, the school is in a self-contained room at the back of the existing shop.

Owner Sam Raindle explains, "We can offer bespoke private classes for groups of up to 10 people or you can join one of our upcoming events. Students will be taught by our award-winning florists. The aim of the sessions is to have some fun with friends and create some amazing floral designs all washed down with a glass of prosecco."
