**What the charity does:** We are set up to deliver training courses in the community. We&#x27;ve been running Braids Academy in the Eastend of Glasgow for almost a year now at the Tollcross Advice and Learning Centre  (Fridays 9.30am - 11.30am) and at the Shettleston Library (Saturdays 10.30 - 12.30pm). Braids Academy is an intensive 3-month course where candidates learn to twist, do single braids, French/Dutch braids as well as cornrow braids and are assessed on. On the induction day, candidates receive a brand new mannequin - a training doll that enables them to practice their skills weekly in class as well as at home. Candidates also receive a tail and detangling combs, a brush and hair accessories such as hair extensions, hair beads, elastic bands, parting clips and butterfly clips. They also receive their portfolio, course manual, some information about the charity, the charity adult policy, equipment, what&#x27;App, photo consent forms and a certificate of achievement.
