The new year has started well with our first Make, Do and Mend skills-sharing session, held at The Crich Glebe Community Centre on 16th January.

Books referred to within the session include:

Plans are also coming together for a range of projects which will encourage people in the community to use creativity to look after people, planet and place, including:
