Ready Steady Knit: the innocent Big Knit is back to craft a better future for older people with Age UK
The much-loved innocent Big Knit campaign is back for another yarn-spinning year, and Age UK Waltham Forest, in partnership with innocent drinks is calling on all knitters and crocheters in Northeast London to join the fun and help make a big difference to the lives of older people, while being part of this infamous campaign.
So why not grab your knitting needles, start stitching, and make a real difference? The funds raised will help Age UK continue to provide older people with vital information, advice, and friendship. The funds will also help Waltham Forest to provide essential services and advice to older people in the borough.
Download the knitting patterns, make yourself a nice cup of tea, find a comfy chair and knit away!
