Sam Nolan from the Friends of the RUH, stopped by at the Radstock Methodist Church to collect over forty blankets made by the Radstock Knitters.

They will be mainly used in the A&E department to keep patients warm while waiting for treatment during the coming autumn and winter months and can then take them home with them. A big thank you to everyone who made them. Sam Nolan thanked all the ladies for their hard work and continued support.

Next for the Radstock Knitters is to take the same number of blankets to the Cats and Dogs home and to add more poppies to the giant poppy wreath ready for November, which will be installed on the Miners’ Wheel again. Contact [email protected] or the Facebook page for more details on how you can get involved.
