Hide AdA survey by B&Q showed nearly 50 per cent of parents worry their kids will grow up without having learnt basic practical skills such as DIY, cooking, gardening and sewing.
Marketing director Katherine Paterson said: “It’s important that young people and families get the chance to take some time out and spend time together learning new practical skills, which is why we are rolling out our Kids’ Classes into 50 of our stores nationwide.”
