Looking for expert-led, hands-on 3D casting training in the UK? I’m Glenda, founder of Precious Memories — memory-maker, mentor, and award-winning casting specialist with over 20 years of experience. I’m also a mum of two and have an 8-year-old cockapoo called Pickle, who keeps life lively!

Students from across the globe — including Norway, India, the USA, Cyprus, Tanzania, Germany, Australia, and Latvia — travel to Dorset to learn advanced baby, family, pet, and memorial casting techniques that transform creativity into a profitable keepsake business.

Whether you’re new to casting, reigniting your creative skills, or expanding professionally, I provide personalised one-to-one tuition, practical guidance, and ongoing business mentoring so you can succeed in this specialised craft.

Travelling to Dorset? I Make It Easy

Dorset is easily accessible from across the UK and abroad. I’m around two hours from London’s major airports and also within reach of Bristol Airport. Bournemouth Airport is even closer.

Whether you’re flying in or travelling from elsewhere in the UK, I’ll provide recommendations for nearby accommodation, local transport options, and what to bring — so you can arrive confident and ready to learn.
