JULIET
I am a 50-something dog-lovin', plant growin', mother of four 20- somethings who absolutely loves knitting! I knit in my house, on the beach, in the park, in the car, on a paddleboard, on zoom calls, and even on a treadmill! In fact, people are more surprised to see me without my knitting than with my needles in hand.
I am also passionate about mental health recovery. Mental health has affected me personally and a member of my family. I decided to harness my talent and knit to fundraise for women's mental health programs at the Royal, a Mental Health Centre here in the nation's capital.
Also, I am the team captain of the Shopper's Drugmart Run for Women Team Sweet - sporty women, encouraging and empowering together.
100% of proceeds (after costs for materials) will directly support women's mental health programs at the Royal through Team Sweet.
Donations can also be made directly to the team here.
The run this year will be virtual and completed between July 4-11, 2021
You can join my team here.
