Knitters, crafters and crocheters, over to you!

Are you a keen crafter, knitter or crocheter or perhaps just looking for a new hobby?
We would love you to support The Team in creating a knitted poppy waterfall to honour the fallen for Remembrance Day 2025.
This is going to be a BIG challenge but we have plenty of time!!
Each knitted poppy is expected to take from 1 hour to 1 hour 20 mins & should ideally measure from 7cm in diameter.
So please get your needles & hooks to the ready!
We look forward to receiving your donations into any of our branches.
A HUGE thank you in advance to you all.....🌺🌺🌺🌺
