Whatever your age, whatever your ability, come and make something to take home with you.
Materials have mostly been begged or borrowed, repurposing items no longer needed.
We have two craft zones - the bigger one is in the courtyard by the Good Life Hub and is aimed at slightly older children and adults. The smaller one, aimed primarily at young children, is adjacent to the speaker tent in the Littens. Adults will be present at all times, but of course we can't take responsibility for your children, so why not craft alongside them and have fun together!
Thank you to our lovely team of volunteers, ably led by Kate and Caren, for their hard work and their inspiration!
Please note that children remain in your care and we can accept no liability if anything untoward happens. More information.

Friendship bracelet
