Age UK Milton Keynes is the new name for Age Concern Milton Keynes
Age UK and Innocent have teamed up again for the seventh annual Big Knit, and this year Milton Keynes is joining in. For the Big Knit we ask knitters of all ages to use their own spare wool to knit little woolly hats which are sold on top of Innocent smoothies in Sainsbury's and Boots. We're aiming to knit 1,000 in total. Every hat you knit and send to us will raise funds. The hats will appear in stores from 3rd November so you need to get knitting.
Thank you to everyone who has sent in hats to us so far - they look wonderful!

Come and find something a little bit unusual at a bargain price. Our second-hand furniture stores sell beds, chairs, tables, wardrobes and white goods as well as a wide selection of crockery, books and cds. Browsers welcome.
Don't throw away your good quality but unwanted furniture. If you think someone else could use it and it is in a saleable condition, please give it to us. We will collect larger items in the Milton Keynes area.
