Community Members celebrated 'World Wide Knit in Public Day'
Community members came together, as they do annually, at our WH site to knit, crochet, share a cuppa and socialise on June 8.
During our 'World Wide Knit in Public Day' event, lots of chatter and laughter could be heard in the Cafe Alamein area. Some in the group were learning to knit for the first time, while others were working on completing their current knitting projects like Margo and Barbara (pictured below)....
FUN FACT: In 2016, there were 1,015 KIP groups in 57 countries worldwide… and we were a part of it!
Stay tuned for more photos of the event during the week…

Every blanket has a story!!!!
Today we witnessed the handover of the blanket, a handmade gift from one community member to another.
This particular blanket was created by Wendy with a Larksfoot crochet stitch. It was started 12 months ago and while at least another 6 blankets have been created in the meantime, the original blanket was recently completed and gifted today.
We know Jeanette, the eventual recipient, will appreciate this generous gesture and enjoy keeping warm this winter.

Men's Health Matters. That's why there's a Banyule Men's Shed.
The Men’s Shed is a place where men can come and tinker alone or be involved in community projects.
They don't have to make something or fix something, they can just while away the hours in solitary bliss or have their mates around to discuss football or do what they like how they like.
...To get involved, call 9450 2000 or drop in any Monday, 1-3pm. We're located on the Cnr St Hellier and Edwin Street, West H'berg.

MEN'S HEALTH WEEK 2017 - June 12-18
International Men's Health Week aims to increase awareness of the importance of good health in men, boys and their families.
In Australia, Men's Health Week provides a platform for challenging and debating key issues in men's health and to raise the profile of men, their health outcomes and health needs around the country each June.
...Men's Health Week celebrates the strengths of men, the contributions they make and the important role they play in society. It is as much as week of celebration and engagement of men with a serving of health on the side!
