FREE crafting sessions every second Wednesday of the Month at Mostyn

Join us for a Crafternoon every second Wednesday of the Month at Mostyn
Join us every second Wednesday of the Month in the Cafe at Mostyn and get creative for charity!

Make something, raise money and swap craft tips over a slice of cake and a cuppa - sounds perfect to us with all proceeds going to Mind Charity 

Never crafted before? No problem. Our Crafternoon is as simple as getting together and creating something. Have a go, make a mess, and don’t worry too much about the finished product. 

We will have some simple hand sewing projects available to make on the day (basic materials donated by The Craft Cotton Co) or feel free to bring along your own project!
