Learn about Crafting Project (360G-CheshireCF-A569814)

£4,500

Supporting our Community will Invite vulnerable people from the local community to participate in a range of craft workshops that will introduce them to alternative lifestyles and hobbies. Participants will learn traditional crafts such as Knitting, Sewing and Crochet as well as trying out creative crafts such as felting and jewellery making. People will also have an opportunity to learn practical woodcraft in our Outdoor Learning Centre. The project will have a significant impact on people's mental health and wellbeing. It will help to reduce isolation, increase skills and confidence to get back into the job market, encourage positive life choices and ensure that people have a safe place they can go to for support and advice.
