Craft Group
Our meetings are held on the 4th Wednesday of the month from 7.30 - 9.30pm, generally upstairs in the village hall. No previous crafting skills are needed; any member can come along and have a go. We just like to have a fun evening, trying something new. The cost is about £4.00 depending on the event. The £4.00 includes hall hire, materials and coffee and biscuits. There is sometimes an extra charge if materials are more expensive or we have an external demonstrator. Notice will be given about anything extra (e.g. scissors) which you may need to bring.

At our February Craft Meeting members made Felted Beads and created some very attractive necklaces and bracelets.
