Get Crafty for Christmas at Age Concern Sandwich - 23 Oct 2026

Christmas preparations are much more fun with good company and a cuppa! This November and December, we’re hosting three festive craft afternoons at the Age Concern Sandwich Well-being Centre, giving you the chance to add a personal touch to Christmas.

An experienced crafter will be on hand to guide you through each session, with time to enjoy a chat, meet new people and have some festive fun. You’ll also take your finished creations home, ready to enjoy yourself or share with someone special.

Gift Tags and Cards
Tuesday 24 November 2026, 2–4pm

Give your Christmas greetings and gifts a personal touch by making your own gift tags and cards. Enjoy choosing how to put your creations together, with guidance along the way, and take home something that’s much more personal than a message on a ready-made label!

Christmas Glittering Decorations
Tuesday 1 December 2026, 2–4pm

A little sparkle goes a long way at Christmas! Join us to make your own glittering tree decorations, inspired by the beautiful examples shown on our poster. Hang them at home to brighten your festive display, or give one as a thoughtful handmade gift.

Tote Gift Bags
Tuesday 8 December 2026, 2–4pm

Make the wrapping part of the gift! In our final session, you’ll decorate your own tote gift bags, adding a festive touch to make them feel extra special. It’s a lovely way to put some personality into your Christmas gift-giving.

Everything You Need for a Festive Afternoon
Each session costs £10 per person, including all materials and refreshments. You just need to bring your own scissors.
