We are pleased to tell you that we have joined forces with Sandwell Adult and Family Learning (SAFL) to offer arts and crafts sessions for visually impaired people, their families and friends.
The first of these series of workshops are festive based and will include a weekly craft session that will help you to create a complete Christmas display of festive novelties in your home or to give to friends and family as stocking fillers.
All sessions will take place at West Bromwich Town Hall and while we hope you will attend them all, each session is individual and you will have a completed craft to take away with you at the end of the workshop. A small fee of £2.50 is payable by all attendees for each session to help cover refreshments.
