Mother’s Union on the Isle of Man is involved in many different ways with families.
Every weekend 2 members of Mothers’ Union go to the prison to be in the visiting hall at visiting time to play with any children or help them choose toys, games or books to take back to those they are visiting. We are pleased to report that our card making session on the women’s wing is now happening fortnightly. It is very popular with the women and if anyone has any card making materials lurking in a cupboard that they would like to find a good home for please contact Maureen on 801621 we would be very glad to use them. A big thank you to everyone who already has given us any. For more information and details please see the mothers union IoM website : muenterprises.org/isleofmanmothersunion/ |
