Wootton Parish Council's Knit & Natter group was formed in 2020 following an extension to Wootton Community Centre.

The group has gone from strength to strength and has formed some wonderful friendships over the last 3 years. It meets regularly on a Wednesday morning.

Wootton Parish Clerk, Tina Charteress, challenged the Knit & Natter Group to knit poppies to make a display in the large glass window in the community centre. The group took up the challenge and knitted over 2000 thousand. With the help of the fabulous maintenance team a giant wreath was built and is now on display at Wootton Community Centre.
