Greencastle knitting group bringing comfort to young and old alike


The Greencastle Community Centre Knitting Group has been busy knitting for newborn babies at Letterkenny University Hospital and residents at the Alzheimer’s unit in Carndonagh Community Hospital
The Greencastle Community Centre Knitting Group has been busy creating warm and cosy items for the most vulnerable members of the community.
This dedicated group of knitters have been busy knitting cosy hats, boots, and mittens to bring warmth and comfort to premature and newborn babies at Letterkenny University Hospital.
The group is keen to making a significant impact on the local community and in a display of community spirit, it has partnered with Scoil Eoghain in Moville.
The school’s pupils have generously donated their hand-knitted squares, which the group have transformed into colourful and tactile fidget blankets and lap blankets.
These items are now brightening the days of residents at the Alzheimer’s unit in Carndonagh Community Hospital.

“Every stitch we knit is a small act of kindness, and it's amazing to be part of something that makes a real difference in our community.”
Greencastle Community Centre Knitting Group meets every Tuesday from 11am to 1pm at Greencastle Community Centre. New members are always welcome to join. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner looking to learn, everyone is encouraged to come along and knit for themselves or contribute to items for their community.
