Barbara is Peter's 'Nanna'. Peter is her nine year old grandson who was diagnosed with autism at age two. Peter attends Hillside Specialist School, Longridge. Barbara and her friends at Bolton Embroiderers' Guild handmade a variety of unique items to support individuals with autism (mostly Barbra's handiwork).

These beautiful white triangle Christmas box decorations were intricately hand crafted by Barbara with silver thread and beading.
