Knitting and Craft

How Friendships are Made

Some of our Apprentices don’t have the opportunity to share close moments with our older generations. Our knitting and craft sessions provide moments together that are both fun and relaxing.

Our knitting and craft activities provide the opportunity for intergenerational connections through creativity and skill sharing. Apprentices and Silver Warriors have the chance to chat away while working on their projects.

See Us in Action

Our Apprentices recently had the chance to learn the ancient craft of knitting, from our Silver Warriors. In another session, our Apprentices were shown the art of tying gift bows ensuring these skills are passed down through the generations.

Some of our Apprentices don’t have the opportunity to share close moments with grandparents, so seeing the joyful exchanges between the generations is so uplifting.
