We meet weekly on a Wednesday morning from 10.00am to 12noon for most of the year. If you would like to join the Craft Group please contact me. We would be delighted to hear from you – call 0151 625 8559
No particular skills are required as the gifts are so varied. However the knitters have produced hats, mittens and toys. The sewers have created bean bags, juggling balls, pencil cases, dolls’ clothes, marble bags etc. We have also made notebooks and covered them attractively, beaded jewellery, necklaces and bracelets. In addition the group has extended outwards with many other church members, who cannot attend the group activity, making articles at home.
Towards Christmas the many items are taken to the local warehouse in nearby Birkenhead where they are added to the boxes that are sent Eastern Europe and Africa as part of the Teams4U charity based in Wrexham.
In late November /early December members of the Craft group are invited to the local warehouse to help check and pack the shoeboxes ready for shipment.
