Received 21 October

The South Bedfordshire Craftivists Group were responsible for instigating the creation of a ‘town’ of model houses for the Circuit Service on the Downs last year (2023).

We are a group of people, currently from the Methodist Circuit though willing to expand, engaged in using our craft skills to help work towards social justice. Craftivism is a gentle form of activism designed to create positive change.

Craft a Poppy for the Square

Received 13 July

For Remembrance Sunday (10th November) this year, we would like to decorate the railings leading up to the front doors of the church with hand-made poppies.

These can be made with whatever you wish as anything not weatherproof will be used inside the church. If you can knit or crochet, these will be suitable for outside as they can withstand getting wet.

There are many free poppy patterns available online; it would be lovely to have a variety of sizes and designs - we will need lots!
