Are you of Black African or Caribbean Heritage and want to make a difference in your community?
 
We are thrilled to be partnering with NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) to offer free Sip & Sew sessions from September until July 2025 to raise awareness about the importance of blood donations within the Black African & Caribbean community in Medway and the surrounding areas.
 
Join us for a special workshop where you'll not only learn how to sew a beautiful motif onto a tote bag from scratch, but you'll also have the opportunity to learn how you can make a real difference in the community by understanding the impact of black blood donation.
 
Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced sewer, all skill levels are welcome! This is a fantastic opportunity to develop your sewing skills, create something unique, and learn more about how you can help save lives through blood donation.
 
Let's come together, create, and contribute to an important cause. We can't wait to see you there! Refreshments Available - Donations are welcome ✂️🧵
 
These events are suitable from age 17 and above.
