The Wapping Quilt project was a complete triumph as you can see by the photo. Hopefully it will go to a permanent home in Wapping which will be advertised at Wapping Station. We are starting a new quilting project from the middle of February and if anyone wants to learn to crochet, there will be a free session on Saturday 10 February at the Jesuit Refugee Service on Chandler St from 1.30. All welcome!
On 4 October, the Turk’s Head held a public meeting at Raines House to discuss issues affecting local residents and recommendations to solve some of those issues. We have collated the information here

We are running a quilt project from 11 October 2023 for 8 weeks at Raine’s House. Cost is £5/£7.50 per session – Wednesday evening session is a little more expensive because the room costs more to hire. Do come you can make friends, learn new skills and create something unique.
