Thanks to a grant from Wythenshawe Community Housing Group, on September 22nd 2025, Crossacres Ageing Well Craft Group enjoyed a day trip by coach to Mostyn, North Wales. This was a return trip by popular request to Abakhan Fabrics, hobby and Home.

The venue has a vast array of craft items on offer and a general gift shop on site. The café provided a welcome break from shopping and time to catch up whilst making the most of the sunny weather.

In addition, the grant enabled us to purchase three new sewing machines which has greatly enhanced facilities for our Sewing group.

Thank you Wythenshawe Community Housing Group!
