There will be a morning and an afternoon session, 10-12.30 and 13.30-16.00.

You are welcome to book on one or both sessions.

 

There is no charge to take part in the workshop, though we welcome donations to help pay for the kits we make and to provide seed funding to groups in developing countries to set up their own kit making schemes. The kits cost us around £10 each to make. A suggested donation is £3 – or this year - why not donate a couple of pairs of new, dark coloured, knickers in standard sizes (between 8-16)?
