Textiles Skills Centre has linked with Epsom and St Helier hospitals charity to make calico dolls, for Children’s wards.

Our first donations have arrived in the children’s ward, thanks to our amazing teachers who have started to make the calico dolls and to Nicky, who has made some sensory squares for babies in ICU, worn initially by their parents, so the babies recognise the smell and are comforted.

Thanks to DRYAD Education for their fabric donation.

The nurses send a huge thank-you, they were so pleased, and added they were really impressed with the sewing!
