SUMMARY:BEASTS OF BAYEUX - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:C&CC are pleased to offer this Hybrid workshop with Nik Ravenscroft.   Nik will be Zooming in to WI Centre so you could join from home\, or come to WI centre to join other stitchers. The focus of the workshop is Bayeux stitch which is the main stitch used to great effect in the Bayeux tapestry and is also used by contemporary embroiderers. The workshop will use Bayeux stitch and stem stitch in Appleton’s wool to create lively mediaeval-inspired creatures\, based on images from early textiles and the Bayeux Tapestry. You will select one from four possible designs\, and each kit includes all the materials you need to complete the design. You’ll need your own 8” hoop.  Bayeux stitch is not a difficult stitch to learn; if you are a beginner\, but can thread a needle\, you should find this a good introduction to embroidery.

SUMMARY:Osteoporosis Bone Density Heel Scan at WI Centre
DESCRIPTION:The Osteoporosis Assessment Service will be visiting WI Centre with their heel ultrasound scanner (McCue CUBAClinical) which does not use X-rays but safe ultrasound signals. The bone density measured in the heel is strongly related to the hip and spine and is an excellent surrogate scanning site for osteoporosis assessments.  A small amount of ultrasound gel is placed on a bare heel and the scan is performed within 3 minutes. The results are printed and explained within a 10-minute appointment. \n  \n  \nMORNING AND AFTERNOON SLOTS AVAILABLE.  SELECT YOUR PREFFERED SESSION WHEN BOOKING \nTo book your place go to ticketsource.co.uk/fewi (no booking fee for booking online) or call  \n0333 666 3366 (Booking line open Mon-Fri 9am-5pm\, fee applies). \nFurther dates available to book:- \n13th September 2023
