Our readers are a generous bunch, and we know just how much you love to use your knitting skills to help fundraise for good causes. As you may know already, The Knitter's charity of the year for 2010 is Mencap and we have lots of exciting ways that you can get involved.
First of all there are patterns to download from the Mencap website, including fabulous hat designs from celebrities Lynda Bellingham and Mathew Horne. All you have to do is make an online donation and the patterns are yours to download right away!
We're also delighted to let you know about our nationwide event which we have called Make and Bake for Mencap. I know how much my knitting group love to get together - any excuse and we will stop by for a cuppa and a piece of cake! So why not turn this into a fundraising event for Mencap? There is a great pack to download on their site and with Learning Disability Week from 21st to 27th June, the timing couldn’t be better to plan your event.
The pack has lots of ideas about how to raise funds and some yummy recipes - the cinnamon banana bread is delicious. It
also gives information on Learning Disability Week – please do have a look and let’s see if we can really make a difference to this amazing charity. Juliet Bernard,
Editor,
