Knit and Natter Group need wool to help babies

The ladies of the Milford on Sea Knit and Natter Group need your help with donation of wool please.

The Knit and Natter Group are supporting 'The Wendy Warrington Incubator Knitting Campaign'. Wendy is a paediatric nurse and midwife who journeys to Ukraine, sharing her medical knowledge and distributing incubators for young babies.

To support Wendy, our local group of knitters require wool to make; baby blankets, matinee outfits, hats, gloves, booties, and knitted toys like teddies. Wendy will then pass the items on with the baby incubators. 

If you have any spare balls of wool, the Knit & Natter ladies would be very happy to put them to good use. 

Please just drop any spare wool you have into the Village Hall in Park Road on Monday's between 2pm to 4pm

They would also welcome any keen knitters to join them.

You can find out more about Wendy Warrington, her journey to Ukraine, and on becoming a Bravery Award Finalist, by clicking here.

About the Knit & Natter Group

The Knit & Natter Group meet on Monday's from 2pm to 4pm in the Village Hall in Park Road, Milford on Sea. 

The group was founded in 2007, and they often knit items for a good cause or charity, and love to have a chat as they knit together. 

During the height of the Covid Pandemic in January 2021, the Knit & Natter Group, along with the WI and other Milford on Sea residents, supported the Becton Rotary Club Knitted Hearts Project, knitting many hearts for patients & staff in local hospitals.

They are currently making items for young babies in Ukraine by supporting 'The Wendy Warrington Incubator Knitting Campaign'.

Everyone is warmly welcomed to join in the Knit & Natter, so please just go along on a Monday afternoon with your knitting needles!
