Hi Sian

This is the link http://www.societyofgilders.org/ to the Society of Guilders….I see that under “Find a Guilder” that there are some members in the UK perhaps the society or one of its members could set you on the right track..

Gilding Courses

One of the best gilding courses I believe is by Pierre Lafrance, of Galerie Lafrance, 15 Pinewood Avenue, Northbourne, Bournemouth, Dorset,
Tel: 01202 582957

There are other training providers listed at: http://www.fineart.co.uk and go to 'Directory' and then 'Training Providers'. All trainers listed with the Fine Art Trade Guild are listed there, plus their course content, there could be one close to you?

Hope you find what you require, if not get back to me (028) 9269 3807 I will put you onto someone else.
