Knitting for Wellbeing (Beginners)

Mirfield Community Centre, Water Royd Lane, Mirfield, WF14 9SG

Life skills and interests

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.

Please be aware that due to funding from Kirklees Success Centre, priority will be given to learners living in Kirklees and to ensure we are being fair and equitable to everyone, this course is not available to those who have attended this beginners course previously.  Please check out our intermediate course!
