Crafts and a Cuppa meets at Old Songs’ Home, in Gratwicke Road, on Wednesday mornings and members take along any crafts they are working on to join others for friendship and support.
Georgina Colwell, who owns the hall, said: "We decided as a group that we would share our skills to help others. A lot of us are knitters and also make crochet items, especially for babies and children.

"We make items for new babies and young mums, too, and present them with gift bags of useful things to make life a little easier. We want people to know what we do, why we do it, and where we do it, as our way of helping others who are less fortunate than ourselves."
