Tapestry of Touch

Jim Davis and Jo Hayward

Available for over a year

Leicester welcomed the Tapestry of Touch to The Peepul Centre on Orchardson Avenue in Leicester. It's a wall of hand-made pom-poms, specially created by deafblind people and you can go along and see it and crucially, touch it for yourself. It's all been organised by 'Sense', the national charity for people with multi-sensory impairments and complex and multiple disabilities. And Jim & Jo were invited to go along and experience the tapestry for ourselves and meet some of the people who contributed to this fabulous creation. The Tapestry of Touch is at The Peepul Centre for two weeks before moving down to London Kings Cross station.
