A community sewing group that made scrubs and incubator covers for hospitals during the pandemic is looking for more volunteers.

“We have members in Wanstead and across Redbridge and Waltham Forest, but as more of us return to work we need new seamstresses to join us in order to continue making essential supplies, which now includes medical gowns and kids’ pyjamas for Ukraine refugee centres,” said a spokesperson for Sew Solid Crew, which has donated over 14,000 items since March 2020.
