Sewing machines will be set up to continue the morning activity, and for our volunteers.

Taster Session and sign up – Cultivate-Funded Social Prescribing Programme. (Programme runs Wednesdays 2-4pm, Abbey Stadium, 20 September to 29 November.)
Turn a plastic bottle and denim waste into fabulous plant holders using simple hand stitching, led by one of our participants and volunteers.
Please sign up for these sessions online. The taster session is open to all but we especially welcome people wanting to sign up to the September ‘Sewcial Prescribing’ course, which is aimed at people aged over 65, although we are able to take people under 65 on application.
