Did you know that knitting can reduce depression and anxiety, boost feelings of wellbeing and help you to cope with pain? These are just a few of the many benefits to this wonderful activity. This course, kindly delivered by the lovely Yvonne from Kirklees Success Centre is suitable for beginners and those with some previous experience, so come along and have some creative fun on this practical five week course. Yarn and knitting needles will be provided.
