A GREENOCK business is urging crafty locals to help create bags that support cancer patients.

After an urgent plea from a patient of the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre, The Wee Crafty Owl on Jamaica Street is looking for people to make bags to cover syringe drivers - which dispense medication on the go.

Mairi Coventry, who owns the shop, says she is happy to help with knitting patterns and advice to create the bags.

Finished products can be dropped off at the shop for Mairi to hand on.
