THE BIG KNIT

Age UK Surrey (VSNS)

The Big Knit

We are very pleased to announce that, in partnership with Innocent, the Big Knit has returned! 

We would love for everyone to get involved - it is now time to ask your residents, family, friends, and colleagues to grab their needles and crochet hooks and start knitting for a good cause.

Every knitted hat raises £0.30p which helps Age UK Surrey provide much needed services and support to older people within the Surrey communities.

For more information and patterns please see our Big Knit page on our website Age UK Surrey | Big Knit

We have many drop off locations, but we can also arrange collections if you have any problems with getting the hats to us. 

Please share this far and wide with all your networks as we would love to break our record from the last campaign.

What skills do I need?

A knowledge of knitting and/or crocheting, being able to follow a simple pattern.
