FRIDAY 18 September at 3pm through to SATURDAY 19 September at 3pm.
Following on from the success of last year's 24 Hour Knitathon, we are excited to launch the 2015 24 Hour TWIDDLEMUFF Knitathon!
This year the event will take place at 2 High Street, Whitehaven and starts at 3pm Friday 18 September and finishes 3pm Saturday 19 September.
We will be supporting North Cumbria University Hospitals' Twiddlemuff campaign while also supporting the Redevelopment of Rosehill.
What are Twiddlemuffs?
Twiddlemuffs are Knitted hand muffs with textured items attached inside and out. Researchers have found that they provide simple stimulation for people with Dementia and other memory conditions by soothing restless hands, minimizing agitation and increasing flexibility.
All completed Twiddlemuffs will be donated to Kirkstone Ward for elderly care at West Cumberland Hospital , Whilst the sponsorship will support the redevelopment of Rosehill.
For more information please call Cat Telford or Lyn Baker on 01946 692422. If you are interested in taking part in the knitting it can be just for an hour or so, or the full 24 hours please get in touch! Posters and Flyers are available if you can help promote the event.
If you would like to take part we can provide a sponsor form or you can download one from our website at www.rosehilltheatre.co.uk
