Quilts For Injured Servicemen:
Below: This is a pile of quilts, some of which were made by our members for our latest Charity - "Quilts 4 Injured Servicemen". The injuries some of our soldiers sustain on the battlefield mean they have many months in hospital and then in convalescence before going back to as normal a life as possible. Quilters try to help them by letting them know that we care by making them quilts. This picture shows Brenda Lincoln who is the Co-ordinator. Please scroll down for more examples of our members Servicemen quilts.
When Brenda gets a nice pile of quilts like these, she passes them on to Headly Court Rehabilitation Centre where they are allocated. Most of our quilts have Union Jacks on them as our Soldiers are very patriotic
