Blacksmithing and Baking

Blacksmith Clare from Solihull and baker Gavin from Bedfordshire both dream of building businesses from their passions.

After deciding teaching wasn’t for her, Clare turned to metalwork and retrained as a blacksmith. Having just finished her studies, she needs to start making money so that she and her partner can save up a deposit for their first home together.

Orchestra box office manager Gavin hopes that baking will also help him save enough money to move house. He currently lives with his mum, and although she is the inspiration behind his baking, he wants his own place with more space for him and his equipment.

Both have talent, and their mentors believe they could be booking the removal vans in no time, but will Clare and Gavin put in the hard graft to be successful?
