    Why not ask if your local SCBU or NCT could put out an appeal for some?

    Hi, I am a volunteer for a Hospice. I don't have any wool at the moment but would be happy to appeal for some for you. If you want to pm me your email, I can let you know if I manage to get some for you.

    Well done on your charity work!
