Big Knit 2026-28 update

The Age UK and innocent smoothie official launch date for their Big Knit campaign during October 2026 and February 2028 is Wednesday 14 October 2026 and is when their Call to Knit will begin

We’ve already started our call to knit ahead of their official launch date and we already have 1,400 hats boxed up and ready to send!

Our target for this campaign is 25,000 hats and for every hat we submit we’ll get 30p which means we will receive up to £7,500 from innocent to support our work in County Durham.

To ensure your hats are counted as part of our target, please return them to our Charity Superstore or to our main office at Houghton House   (other Age UK charity shops in County Durham are managed by Age UK nationally and the hats they receive will go towards their targets).

We have a selection of patterns that can be sent to you by email or downloaded below:

• Basic
• Intermediate
• Advanced

If you have any questions please call us on 0191 386 3856 or email us at info@ageukcountydurham.org.uk
