Dear Ladies

I am writing to ask if any of your members would be interested in helping us to knit things for our
"Wrap up a Kiddie" campaign?

All the children we knit (and sew) for are being supported by the London charity, Kids Company
(www.kidsco.org.uk) and are growing up in very precarious conditions and circumstances indeed.

We knit scarves, hats, mittens, cardigans, jumpers, blankets of all shapes sizes and colours for
them - there are children from tiny babies to teenagers being helped via Kids Company and so we can
find a home for any items in virtually any size and colour!

We would also like to collect some knitting supplies to share amongst those who can knit but are not
able to buy wool etc.

Do you think this is something your group would be interested in helping with?


There is a website here with more information about the entire project (knitting and sewing):
www.sharingcolourandcomfort.webs.com


The contact for donating knitting supplies (wool, yarn, etc) is:
Mrs Jackie Western
enquiries@partynightscreations.co.uk
or via her blog: http://party-nights-creations.blogspot.com/p/wrap-up-kiddie.html


The address to send finished items to is:
Kids Company
FAO Rebecca Peters / Shyam Scheuch
Wedge House
36-40 Blackfriars Road
London
SE1 8PB
GB

I would be delighted to answer any questions at all that you may have and would like to thank you
already for taking time to read this mail and considering whether your group could help.

With kindest wishes
Nicki Auf der Maur

PS Please do feel entirely free to forward this mail to anyone you know who could help. Thank you
