An award-winning franchise is bringing arts and crafts for youngsters aged from five months to five years to Sidmouth for the autumn term.

The Creation Station recently beat 5,000 other businesses to make it through to the finals of VOOM 2016, a business competition run by Virgin Media Business.

Alice Simpson, the owner of the Honiton and Exmouth branch, said: “We have so much fun in class and a lot of parents travel from Sidmouth to Honiton or Exmouth for classes, so it felt right to bring the fun to them this term. I am so excited to see the creative journeys that all our little ones will make.”

Classes start on September 14 and run for 10 weeks at Primley United Reformed Church Hall.
