The busy club members dedicated their time to creating colourful beanies for babies at the Bedford Hospital Premature Baby Unit, and were pleased to hand the headwear over this summer. A spokeswoman said: “We had 217 hats knitted in total .”

The hats are important for the babies - especially premature ones - because newborn babies can lose heat very quickly and it can lead to them becoming unwell.
