Pimm's & Needles is a not for profit organisation, we run 28 paid for women's groups that meet each month across the North East and 5 fully funded "Silver Member's" Groups for socially isolated women aged over 65. At our monthly sessions our Silver Members come along for 2 hours and take part in an activity, we have done a watercolour painting workshop lately, cake decorating, tea blending & tasting as well as more holistic sessions such as laugher yoga.

From time to time when one funding stream has ended before another one is found we do have a period of time where any profits from our paid for groups pay for the Silver Groups to keep going until another funder is found, but as the costs of everything have increased its becoming increasingly difficult to make any profit for times when we need it. So we are struggling to be able to be able to build this buffer for our funded groups. Any funds raised will be used specifically for this purpose.
