Big Knit in 2025
Celebrating 22 years of little hats
We have joined in the Big Knit campaign every year since it began in 2003 and believe it is a fun way for knitters (expert and newbies) to help older people in the community.
Every little hat you send us will raise a vital 30p from innocent smoothies. Knitters have until Tuesday 1st July 2025 to send in their hats, so we're now in the final stretch. Please rally your knitting friends and help us finish strong, and together we can make a huge impact in Northamptonshire!
Please help us reach our 20,000 target
We are grateful to all our Big Knit knitters. Whether you knit four or five little hats, or like spending hours working your way through bags of wool, we appreciate every little woolly marvel that arrives at The William and Patricia Venton Centre. Each little hat enables us to make a difference to older people in Northamptonshire.
Call us on 01604 611200 if you'd like to get involved. You can post your little hats to us at The William and Patricia Venton Centre, York Road, Northampton NN1 5QJ or drop them off at any of our nine shops in Northamptonshire.

Every hat is valuable to us - we count them, bag them and post them off to innocent so that they can be put on smoothie bottles at the end of 2025!
Thank you to Ann at Millers Yarns and Crafts in Higham Ferrers her much appreciated support. Thank you also Bella Knit in Corby and Kettering Sewing Studio for their support.
Together, we can improve later life for everyone in Northamptonshire
