Over the last few years, parishioners from a number of parishes including the Assumption of Our Lady in Torquay and Our Lady of Lourdes and St Cecilia in Blandford Forum have knitted beautiful baby blankets, cardigans, hats, booties, mittens and teddy bears.
Thanks to these kind, wonderful knitters, we have posted many small bundles of knitted garments to families who apply for an Essential Grant as they don’t have enough funds to pay for some of the basic essentials for their babies such as cots and mattresses, single and double pushchairs, baby monitors, baby clothes, travel systems, high chairs, car seats, sterilisers, electric breast pumps, changing bags and bottles, nappies and wipes. We’ve received some wonderful feedback from parents.
If you enjoy knitting and would like to help families of all faiths and none, please do get in touch with our Essential Grants Manager by calling 01364 645424 or by emailing vicki.dunstone@ccsplynouth.org.uk
