Peterborough guild

We are a friendly group meeting in a modern but cosy village hall that has space for all our activities. Visitors are welcome to come along and find out about us. We have a mix of outside speakers, our own skill shares and working sessions.

Regular meetings are 10am – 3pm.

Our programme for 2026 include

Dyeing, spinning, fleece and fibre preparation, eco printing workshop, making our own art batts and spinning art yarns as our skill shares from our members. Plus regular working sessions where we bring along our own projects.

2025 was our 50th anniversary, and all members have contributed to our celebratory banner, which will be unveiled at our March 2026 AGM
