Knitting event brings community groups together

Published on: March 18, 2025

Folk Like Us and Supported Volunteering Project joined Trust Links Charity REACH Recovery College in their first ever KnitWorking event earlier this week.
 
The event was a chance for local knitters and crochet groups to come together and create handmade items for neonatal babies, hospitals and local support services for families. It was a great day full of good chats, social connection and community spirit!
