SIR,

Age Cymru needs your readers' help with our The Big Knit 2013 fundraiser.

We're looking for knitters to knit little bobble hats which will appear on innocent smoothie bottles in Sainsbury's stores across Wales.

Age Cymru receives a donation for every smoothie hat knitted and money raised by The Big Knit allows us to help older people stay fit, healthy and active during the winter months and keep their homes warm.

It doesn't matter if you don't have a Sainsbury's store in your area - you can still join in.

If you would like to take part in the Big Knit 2012 please contact Emma Lionel 029 2043 1555 or send an email to [email protected]">[email protected]

The deadline for sending hats to Age Cymru is 18th September, so please join in with The Big Knit and help us to help older people across Wales this winter.

Happy knitting.

Nia Butler

(Individual Fundraising Manager,

Age Cymru)
