I've been invited to be onto a few BBC programes, most recently was BBC 1 Antiques Road Trip series 30, 2025.

Phil Serrell & Natasha Raskin Sharp come to my workshop in Alston, where I tought them how to chaircane. It was a hilarous few hours, but I think Phil got the caning bug!

CBBC Junk Rescue with Danny Alexander, where I showed him how to recane a special upcycled chair.

In 2012 I was on BBC's 'Put Your Money Where your Mouth Is' with Antique dealer David Harper.

The Cane Workshop was featured in a fabulous 5 page editorial in July 2010

Living North published a two page 'Focus On...' my work in April 2011

Incredible marmalade, beautiful hand caned furniture, a brilliant selection of locally made gifts and card and so much more in this wonderfully welcoming little shop.

What a wonderful, snug workshop and shop. Friendly, and helpful, selling artisan locally sourced craft goodies and the most delightful, beautifully restored caned furniture. All the Christmas shopping!! Truly and utterly charming.

Just picked up my great grandmothers bedroom chair after Louise re-canned it. Over the moon with the result, many thanks Louise
