We are very keen for people to start a new group among their family, friends and work colleagues. As the organiser of the new group you will become a President, and as such will be invited to our AGM held every year in London. You will also be asked to deliver any items of clothing or linen that you have collected over the year to St James’ Palace in early autumn, where we sort and redistribute them all. Of course, a group could just do fund raising for the purchase of items and not have to be present at either event. For an Advice Sheet for New Presidents or Group Leaders click HERE Join the Schools Group We will welcome new Schools into our Schools Group wherever they are located. To receive a School’s Pack or to have our Schools Representative visit your school contact the Secretary at secretary@qmcg.org.uk Donate Fund raising is obviously an on going process. Donations of money are specifically used to purchase required items of clothing or linen from various warehouses. If you wish to donate, and are a UK taxpayer, we are able to reclaim tax on your donation.

Make Many of our groups have large numbers of knitters who make the vast majority of the hats, scarves, bed jackets, cardigans, jumpers and baby clothes that we give away each year. If you are a keen knitter or know a knitting group that would like to make items for us, the following are the items that are most needed.
