Saturday brings the World Wide Knit in Public Day. Started in 2005 by Danielle Landes, it takes place on the second Saturday of June each year.

It seemed like a perfect opportunity to get the community together with their knitting needles to help knit poppies for Remembrance Sunday.

It is all happening at St Peter’s Church on Saturday morning.

We hear more from Christine, one of the main organisers
