Fine Cell Work is a UK charity transforming lives through the power of needlework โ helping people in prison and post-release build self-worth, skills, and a sense of identity. With 205 Stitcher Awards supported by The Brothers Trust, the impact is real and growing and we are thrilled to have been working together since 2023.
At our recent Posh Pub Quiz, we auctioned The Flight of the Swallows โ a beautiful piece of art. Tom was thrilled to be involved in creating this stunning piece of art and pulled in some help, and experience from his neighbour Doreen.
