Your Ticket!
In some instances the Chamber of Commerce or Local Council or a Government Department has approached me, and I can give a free coupon for the course. If you have that coupon (it comes from them, not me) please use it at checkout. If you have a BIT.LY link please click SUBSCRIBE NOW and you'll see the price change to $0.00

If I have come to speak at your local hall or club, I might've given you a coupon code then, please email pa@laurelpapworth.com if you are stuck using it.

The $10 a YEAR is to stop spammers from invading the Q&A forum with their rubbish. Trying to manage spam in free groups is very trying so forgive me the 10 bucks.
