Hobbycraft Gloucester has marked 30 years of serving local makers with a celebration linked to World Mental Health Day.
The Gloucester store celebrated its 30th anniversary with a day of making, activities and in-store surprises.
Hobbycraft says research from its Power of Making report, created with charity partner Mind, found 53 per cent of people say crafting improves their mood.
The store offered free goody bags, a golden ticket hunt and Craftober discounts and workshops.
Store manager Natasha Morgan said the anniversary was a “fantastic milestone” and praised the local community for its support over the past three decades.
