Event: One off volunteering: knitting Blankets for London

What You'll Do: 

City Volunteering will be running a one-off volunteering session on-campus, where we will be knitting squares for Blankets for London 2024. 

We'll knit lots of little squares, which will be created into blankets by Blankets for London and distributed to people experiencing homelessness across London. The session is open to all levels of ability, from beginners to experienced knitters! There will be experienced knitters there to show you how to begin.

 

All knitting equipment will be provided, just come along and bring a friend. It's also completely fine if you can't make the entire session, just drop in!

 

Where: CityBar, Tait Building

 

When: Tuesday 8th October

 

Time: 2pm-4pm
