Handmade with Love
Join our generous community of knitters, sewers, crocheters, quilters and crafters
The Programme
The Middlemore Foundation Wool Programme was established 1st June 2000 and currently has over 2,000 dedicated knitters nationwide donating beautifully knitted booties, hats, mittens, vests and blankets to keep our premature babies and newborns in the hospital and the community warm.
We also give larger knitted items to Kidz First Children's Hospital and to our community partners to distribute to tamariki and whaanau in our community.
In addition to knitting, we are grateful to receive sewing, quilting, crocheting and all kinds of toys and items lovingly made by our community.
