Jenny worked with young adults to create their own paper at the Museum of Making in March. 

We used eggboxes torn into pieces and blended them to form a pulp, the eggboxes were all different colours, they added wools and threads and seeds.

Butterfly Banner for International Women's Day Project

We delivered a 2 month project to work with women and girls on a large banner for INternational Women's Day Event in Derby. We worked with Derby College students, young women with learning disabilities, women at drop in sessions at Derby Women's Centre and women at a wellbeing group. 

The women were asked for their experiences of women's health in Derby and they all completed a questionnaire which will be used to improve health services in Derby.

The project was funded by the NHS Women's Health Hub Grant.
