The innocent Big Knit
Ready Steady Knit - the innocent Big Knit is back!
What is The Big Knit?
The Big Knit is Age UK's partnership with innocent drinks. Since 2003, thousands of knitters and crocheters have created little hats for smoothie bottles, raising over £3.2 million to support people in later life.
Every little hat you make raises 30p for Age UK Cheshire, helping to provide vital support, friendship and advice to older people across the county.
Get involved!
Whether you're an experienced knitter, a complete beginner or part of a knitting or craft group, we'd love you to join us.
The Big Knit is up and running for a whole year, with 1st October 2027 being the deadline to get your hats to us, so get your knitting needles and crochet hooks ready! The more hats we receive, the more older people we can help.
There are exciting new hat designs for knitters of all levels of experience available to download now. If you're feeling creative, we'd love to see your own designs too!
Hand in your hats
Once your wonderful knitted creations are ready, you can drop them off or post them to:
- At one of our local shops.
- Or at Age UK Cheshire, Castle Community Centre, Barbers Lane, Northwich CW8 1DT.
Don't forget to include your contact details so we can send you a well-deserved thank you and keep you updated on the difference your support is making.
How does the Big Knit help?
Every hat you create raises money to support older people across Cheshire, helping them stay connected, independent and supported when they need it most. These little hats make a big difference!
