Make a pompom. Make a wish. Make an APOMAWISH.

Led by artist, designer and pompom queen Rachel Burke, we’re inviting everyone to make a simple pompom and share a wish for the future.

This activity is suitable for all ages and abilities. We have organised a template and step-by-step instructions for you to follow along. All you need is some yarn and simple craft-making tools.
