We are using RAM Models (UK register of life models). The RAM Life Model will be organising the Brentford Life Drawing classes.
Please note that if you book and then can't make it, cancel in time and you may not be expected to pay, as the model might be able to pull someone in on the waiting list. If not you will be expected to settle if they cannot fill the place you once reserved.
