Arts and Crafts Club
The Club, which has now been running for several months, was initially funded by the Neighborhood Board but has now become self supporting.
It meets for a couple of hours every week to enjoy one another’s company and share experiences of both new and existing ‘Arts and Crafts’ activities.
Currently the club is having a ‘Summer Recess’ restarting on 17th September. It will then meet in the Village Hall every Thursday, as before, between 2pm and 4pm with a modest fee of £2.
So far the group has covered pottery, printing, card making, decoupage, box
design and paper making.
It caters for both disabled and able bodied people and the Club decides what
they will do as a group or as individuals. All abilities are welcome and
everybody’s needs are catered for and new ideas are welcomed.
