We are challenging ourselves to knit or crochet throughout March, sponsored by our friends and families.

We each have our own challenge - to knit or crochet a whole garment, to finish a project, to knit or crochet for a certain amount of time each day, even to learn to knit or crochet!

Some of us, with arthritic conditions affecting the hands, will find this very challenging indeed, so please support us.

Around 10 million people in the UK are thought to have arthritis. It can affect people of all ages – even children and teenagers. Some forms of arthritis are more common in older people.

Research funded by Versus Arthritis has made life-changing breakthroughs and improved the lives of millions of people living with arthritis.

The Charity also provides information on the website and the helpline for people living with arthritis . There are also support groups.

There is so much more - see the website.
