Our Mile End Volunteering Officer is running an initiative to craft activity packs to be donated to patients at St Joseph's Hospice. Click here to see how you can get involved!
Brighten someone’s day through creativity and kindness with our "Art with a Heart" initiative!
In collaboration with Women in Law Society and Sober Socials, our Mile End Volunteering Officer, Lily, is running an initiative where students can create thoughtful and comforting items for patients at St Joseph’s Hospice in Hackney. Whether you're artistic, crafty, or just looking to give back, there are plenty of ways to get involved.
What You Can Make:
All handmade items will be delivered to the hospice to bring comfort, entertainment, and joy to patients.
If you'd like to do some crafts to donate at home, reach out to su-volunteering@qmul.ac.uk or Lily at volunteering-officer@qmsu.org for some templates to create wordsearches and crosswords at home/some origami and crochet instructions.
