The Whitechapel Centre Call For Donations....

 "The Whitechapel Centre is the leading homeless and housing charity for the Liverpool region. We work with people who are sleeping rough, living in hostels or struggling to manage their accommodation. We are committed to helping people find and maintain a home and learn the life skills essential for independent living."

Through out August & into September, Girl On Purl Action is going to be working with The Whitechapel Centre, teaching its service users how to knit & crochet!

We will be working on a community based project for Saint Francis Xavier's Church to decorate the Church for a weekend of celebration for the restoration of the Ignation stained glass window for now. You can read all about it here.

The Church does a lot to support The Whitechapel Centre & they would like to be involved to give back something to a community based project, whilst developing skills of their own along the way! There is a weekend of celebration to be held 12th-13th September in which the display will go up.

However we need the help of the community. We are asking for donations of any colour or amount of double knit yarn. 

If you are based in Liverpool then you can drop of your donations to me directly every other Monday at The Everyman Theatre 7.30pm-9pm during our free craft meetings. Click here for a list of dates.

If you cant make that then please feel free to deliver them to The Whitechapel Centre directly!
