new carers group run by carers for carers

10/18/2016

Sylvia Brant, carer and new befriender is setting up a new carers group in Inverkeithing. They will meet for the first time on Wednesday 2nd November at 1pm and decide from there how often they will meet. As this takes place during befriending week, our befrienders will be going along to chat about befriending – how it is helping carers and the benefits to volunteers.
It is taking place in Inverkeithing Baptist Church, Church St, Inverkeithing, KY11 1LG. There is limited parking next to the church and further parking behind the shops opposite the church.
It is absolutely without doubt that carers benefit enormously from getting together to share time together, learn from each other and have a bit of fun! So please go along and help get this group off the ground!

BIG KNITTERS IN STITCHES!

Picture
Great start to the Big Knit Thursdays! Pat did a magnificient job of teeny hats and pompoms! (Lesley did a great job of drinking the smoothie as you can see) Also in mass production were Linda, Tom, Julie, Mhairi and Lesley. Non knitters were busy making pompoms - so we could have a wee production line going. That was the plan however it turns out that some of us are pompom-ily challenged and the production line plan went a bit off plan... who'd have thought pom poms could be quite so entertaining!?
Never mind if you can't come along to our next session (Thursday 27th October in Fife Carers Centre) you can work away at home and drop the hats into us at some point. You'll find patterns and ideas on the big knit website at http://www.thebigknit.co.uk/
Watch this space for news of Julie's finished pom pom - it'll be worth the wait no doubt!!
