This Easter, we’re distributing over 270 crafty kits to our community members, colleagues and friends. Each kit contains everything you will need to make some wonderful Easter decorations and some very tasty recipes to try too!
The kits have all been put together by Sarah and the Martin House gang at Botton Village. The team have also created some very handy ‘how to’ films for you to watch and follow the process step by step.
Don’t worry if you didn’t receive one of our craft kits, we’ve made it very simple so that you can join in at home too! Just follow the instructions for each activity below.
We’d love to see some photographs of your Easter crafts. You can email them to sarah.fishburn@cvt.org.uk
