Learning new skills, being creative is relaxing and rewarding its helpful to the environment and its great fun!
Description
Cancer has touched every family wether its someone we know, or one of our own loved ones.
To show a little kindness and let them know we are thinking of them, we would like to involve the community in sewing Christmas Cushions and stockings for donations to The Ayrshire Hospice and The Beatson Hospital.
We will host 3 half day sewing sessions for local people to come along and volunteer their time to create christmas cushions and stocking for the christmas project.
We dont have a laptop or internet access in our workspace and use our own mobile data. To show tutorials at workshops and communicate information of the workshops and the achivements would help us promote what we do.
To help us achieve this project we ask for:
Laptop-£ 339.00
Christmas Fabric -£200.00
Cushion inserts-£150.00
Location: Creative Recycling Limited in a non profit Social Enterprise based in Stevenston, we upcycle and recycle textiles and small household furnishings. We are keen to involve local people by offering workshops where they can learn new skills, develop existing skills, meet new people via combined shared interest in sewing, recycling and community involvement.
