Bendigo
Helen Coughlan uses craft to bring people together. She says her skills are “actually really basic” but that’s ok.
She says, “I get joy from seeing others becoming a part of something and feeling welcome. I love seeing that happen, no matter the skills people have.“
Helen runs a weekly community craft table at Bendigo Library and a ‘crochet club' for primary school kids. She's a founding member of a group of yarn bombers that keep the trees, and occasionally trams, of Bendigo warm and colourful each winter
