Linda Miller with her husband Jim LEYLAND super-gran Linda Miller knitted 420 snowmen in 2020, to support the children’s hospice Derian House. The 73-year-old carried on knitting despite having to spend time in hospital last year to recover from two heart attacks. Linda, who has impaired vision but has been been knitting snowmen for the hospice for six years, raised a bumper £635 during the pandemic. “We’ve been inundated!” said Linda. “I’ve sold all 420 snowmen I made this year and lots of people were saying ‘take a fiver and keep the change’ because they knew it was for Derian House.
