Over the last few weeks club members have been very busy, successfully knitting several ‘Thin Red Line’ scarves as part of our campaign to highlight the impact of climate change, modelling the scarves in the bandstand of our local Duthie park. Scottish club members are being encouraged to contact their MPs to remind them of the importance of enacting policies in line with the Paris Climate Agreement and are also being urged to display their scarves in their towns and gift the scarves to their MPs!
Club members have also recently spent a week supporting the local charity ‘Aberdeen Cyrenians’ in the Aberdeen City Council charity shop. Volunteers ran the busy shop throughout one week and were thanked for all their efforts. http://www,weareac.org
Members will gather together this week at our Orange Cafe to promote our club and will be delighted to chat to anyone who wants to join us for a ‘cuppa’ and find out about what we do.
And to ‘top off’ the activities our busy members enjoyed a well earned lunch in a local hotel where we took part in a Fairtrade quiz with the winners being presented with a variety of Fairtrade chocolate!http://www.fairtrade.org.uk
