Crafting4Good CIC

Crafting4Good CIC Not-for-Profit social enterprise making creativity accessible, affordable and as green as possible to promote wellbeing and positive mental health.

We’ve been online since 2008 selling printable 'digital' craft supplies for instant download. Over time our interests have evolved with an increasing focus on social and community projects. In March 2017 a parent organisation was registered and is fully regulated as a ‘Community Interest Company’ under the new name ‘Crafting4Good CIC’. The mission is to improve wellbeing and reduce
social isolatio

n through crafting in as ‘green’ and eco-friendly way as possible. We promote ‘Crafting 4 Good’ in 4 ways:

1) Selling Digital Craft supplies via The Printable Craft Shop - income from sales is used to fund all our other activities

2) Accepting unwanted craft donations and distributing them to community groups and social enterprises who can use them

3) Community outreach and group activities - facilitating community workshops using donated stock and printable craft materials

4) Social/Volunteer opportunities - in communities and online

We’re back at Penny Appeal tomorrow to try and find homes for everything we have left in storage. Please share the details with anyone who might be able to take what we have left.

We already have collections lined up on behalf of a women’s prison craft group and a children’s art class.

What’s left after tomorrow may have to be split between charity shops and the tip, so please come and rescue as much as possible!

To all local crafters, charities and community groups : please come and get as many crafting supplies as you can carry!

Our second August clear out event is today, and we want to find homes for everything.

We will also be selling our old stock such as Seawhite sketchbooks, Gelly Roll pens, bioglitter, paints and more at rock bottom prices.

Please RSVP to Jenny if you can, and please don’t come before 11am so we have time to set up. Free parking will be available at the gym club, next to the Penny Appeal campus.

We will have spare boxes and bags in case you don’t bring enough. Any donations are greatly appreciated in our time of need 🙏🫶😌

Please help us! We have boxes and boxes of craft supplies and we need you to prevent them from going to landfill!

We are losing our storage unit in September, so if you have a couple of hours spare this Saturday, please visit Thornes Park and stock up on essentials such as paper, cards & envelopes, sewing patterns, buttons, fabric, yarn, scissors, and much more.

Since last weekend, we now have spare boxes and bags in case you forget! And a plethora of reduced ex-eBay stock such as Seawhite sketchpads, paints, bio-glitter and Gelly rolls 🎨📒🖌️

So we weren’t at the Merrie Festival in person, but we did support Wool n Stuff with craft supplies for their huge art & crafts event!

If you or your organisation need paper, fabric, envelopes, knitting needles, stamps or other craft supplies, this Saturday could be your last chance to get them from us 😱

Our second Saturday giveaway session, at Thornes Park, starts at 11am on 30th August.

The last year has been an especially tough one for Crafting4Good, and chronic illnesses have played a major part in that. Though we have always championed prioritising health over work, we have neglected our own health in order to keep the business going. That was never going to be sustainable for us or our beneficiaries in the long-term.

The directors of the company have made the difficult decision to close Crafting4Good.

We anticipate that by the end of August, we will have fully liquidated. That means all remaining assets will need to be distributed to another CIC. We intend to sell what we can to pay our monthly costs, and get as many craft supplies as possible to our local partners.

I can't thank you all enough for the support and encouragement you have given us these past years. If you can support us one more time, please visit our eBay shop, or share our story with as many people as you can.
