WOOL@J-13 Fibre festival Wool@J13 is inviting crafters to Stitch a Brick to promote mental health. The bricks can be knitted, crocheted, felted or woven and should be decorated with a word reflecting an obstacle or difficulty on one side and a positive word on the reverse showing something that is helping to tackle the issue. The bricks will be built into a wall for the event on the 16th-17th May. There will also be a ‘Take 5’ safe space, supported by Staffordshire charity CARE, which works with mental health.
