A Cambridgeshire woman is the face of a global craft company's new television channel.

Dennice Robinson is one of four presenters hosting Hobbycraft TV, the brand's first-ever dedicated 24-hour crafting channel.

Along with Dean Wilson, Rebecca Edwards and Dan Bancroft, Fenstanton resident Dennice will bring her skills, stories and regional pride to a national audience.

Having first first got into crafting at school - particularly sewing by hand - Dennice still "enjoys the peace and satisfaction today”.

A mother and grandmother, Dennice’s long career in sales, marketing, advertising, magazines and radio led to her joining the team at the original Ideal World TV shopping channel in April 2000.

She said:  "Becoming part of the team for Hobbycraft TV means that I get to work with the talented people that I respect and trust.

"This is as important to me as the relationship built over decades with the people watching at home."

Dennice added that her favourite types of craft are stamping, painting, embossing, paper craft.

If she could craft with any celebrity or artist, it would be Salvador Dali: "can you imagine the fun that would be?!”

Hobbycraft TV is on Freeview Channel 97.
