Join the #CrochetForKidsCancer challenge with Kellie Bright, Patron of Solving Kids' Cancer UK! Kellie is spearheading this campaign to raise crucial awareness and funds for the charity.

"I'm so excited to lead the #CrochetForKidsCancer challenge with Solving Kids' Cancer UK! I've loved crochet and any wool based activities for years now, so to be able to combine this passion with a cause that's so close to my heart is just brilliant. I hope as many people as possible get involved and we can craft some beautiful blankets and raise vital awareness and funds for children and families facing cancer."
