17:00-19:00

Help is needed sewing draft excluders which will be distributed out with the aim of covering up drafty doors to help people to stay warm during the colder months. Although this project has a serious aim of helping a good cause, it will hopefully be a sociable experience where you can have a good chat and enjoy a cup of tea - all whilst learning a new skill. 

  • No experience is needed
  • Cut fabric 
  • Sew seams 
  • Stuff excluders
  • Write messages of kindness

This session will be taught by a volunteer with many years of sewing experience so don't worry if you have never used a sewing machine before. All materials needed to make a draft excluder are provided, however if you are a sewer and wish to bring your own machine then feel free too. Mince pies and refreshments will also be provided. 

Booking is necessary for this event; Telephone: 01916432643 or Email: Josie.Robinson@VODA.org.uk
