ROLE DESCRIPTION:
Volunteer Big Knitters
What is the Big Knit?
The Big Knit is the campaign that Age UK runs in partnership with innocent drinks where we ask you to knit little woolly hats which then go on to their smoothies.
How to get involved: We’d love you to knit lots of lovely little hats for this year’s Big Knit and whether you’re a knitting novice or a purling pro, it couldn’t be easier.
• For each hat knitted, Innocent give 30p to Age UK Notts.
• Knit or crochet as many little hats as you can, and when you can – we provide the patterns!
All the money raised by people knitting and crocheting locally will stay locally and come to Age UK Notts to support the older and vulnerable people.
