Manbag Handout on June 16th!

The next coordinated handout is on (UK) Father’s Day on June 16th. Let’s have a manbag extravaganza… Who’s in?

For those of you new to handouts, it’s basically a sewing frenzy for the next coming weeks culminating in giving away the stash of morsbags you’ve made. Ways of setting your morsbags free into the wild could include:

in/outside a local shop/library/cafe/museum
post through letterboxes in your street
bag your local pub/male changing room…

The possibilities are endless.

What will you do to join in? 🧐

Next Handout is February 3rd!

Let’s bag everyone while the days are dark and (in the UK) we’re desperate to see the sun, reminding people that hope is out there with a morsbag and a smile!

We’re going to bag a local care home and bus service – what will you do?

Please join in!

Next Handout is 20th of November!

Let’s bag everyone for Christmas and remind them that morsbags make not only great presents but fabulous reusable wrapping paper!
