RSVP Knitting and Coffee mornings offer members a chance to socialise over tea and biscuits and display their knitting creations. The knitting groups were created to encourage social interaction in order to combat loneliness and isolation that affects many older people.
Wool is provided to all members and they are asked to knit clothes and dolls during their spare time and to then bring their knitwear to the coffee mornings. Most knitwear is given to local, national and international charities.
