Local Brisbane charity, Knitting for Brisbane’s Needy, has been trying to keep up with highest demand seen for blankets, jumpers and beanies to warm the city’s homeless.

Charity founder Karen Croke said this year alone they’ve seen a huge rise in demand due to more homelessness, an increase in domestic violence and more people struggling.

The charity has asked for community support to help get a new set of wheels to continue its work.
