Disabled Go!Information for Disabled Visitors to the NEC

As the UK's largest Creative Crafts Event, the award-winning Hobbycrafts show acts as a who's who of the craft world, bringing together celebrities of TV and print with craft enthusiasts young and old alike, to share what has become THE show for inspiration, education, hands-on features and an unrivalled choice of supplies.

As more and more people turn away from the mass-produced and turn instead towards 'handmade and personalised' this show is just the place to find all the encouragement and supplies you need for your own creative craft projects. Not only will you be saving money by making cards and gifts yourself, you will be giving a truly personalised present.

As you go around the show collecting up your supplies, you will be absorbed by the splendid work on display from creative craft Artists, Guilds and Demonstrators. Why not take this great opportunity to have all your burning questions answered by leading experts in your specific interest.
