Community Activities
Henley High Street was awash with colour this festive season thanks to a community ‘yarn bombing’ campaign.
The people of Henley in Arden first started yarn bombing the trees along the High Street in 2016 with a nativity scene with a star that lights up at night on the tree at St John Church.
A series of online video tutorials teaching people how to crochet, challenging them to join in crocheting for the trees created a buzz within the community with many new participants signing up.
In addition to the tree bombing this year ‘bollard bombs’ were also created which have been particularly popular with small children stopping to admire them along the high street.
Henley has a lot to offer those looking for an interesting walk or drive through with the decorations remaining up until Twelfth Night.
