Charity crafting dabble day in Deeping raises money for Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice

A charity crafting 'dabble day' was held at Market Deeping Community Centre to raise money for Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice.

The day included the chance to try out seven different crafts such as card-making and jewellery.

Those who came were taught techniques by tutors from Riverside beads and crafts.

The crafting dabble day, on October 6, has been taking place for the past 17 years and the last 10 have raised money for Sue Ryder hospice charity in Peterborough.

Donna McKean Smith, owner of Riverside beads and crafts, said: "It's a wonderful charity that touches the hearts of so many."

The day saw about 100 people attend and raised £1,170.

There were refreshments, a raffle and a tombola that included prizes such as a die cutting machine.

The next dabble day will take place on Sunday, March 8.
