In this area, a large array of products are produced with sewing, embroidery, crocheting, knitting and more. Everything produced are hand-made and unique, such as quilts and bedding, throws, knitted items, toys, aprons, household items, kitchen smalls and many more.

The handwork is, together with Woodwork, the oldest work area in the centre and was started years ago when the centre was built. It still remains an old favourite and allows the residents to create beautiful items, expressing their creativity and skills.

Every year, the Handwork is a firm favourite at out yearly Fête and local Christmas markets, but now items made here can be purchased throughout the year.
