The local branch of a volunteer and fundraising group is marking 100 years since the organisation's inception by knitting.

To celebrate 100 years since the International Inner Wheel was formed, the Bridport Club’s members have knitted 100 squares ready to be sewn up into blankets.

The blankets will then be donated to the Bridport Community Hospital.

Bridport’s branch of the Inner Wheel is part of the wider international organisation that is represented in over 100 countries.

The Inner Wheel club meets at the Haddon House Hotel on the third Tuesday each month.

It meets at lunchtimes during the winter months, and evenings during the lighter evenings.

The club very much welcomes new members, and the person to contact is Mavis Gurd. Her email address is mike.gurd@btinternet.com.
