There isn't any sewing classes at the moment in the Helmet libraries (Helsinki Metropolitan Area Libraries). Any library customer can reserve and use the sewing machines freely and there is also some guidance available in the libraries.
Of course you can suggest sewing classes to libraries and offer your help. There is sewing machines in libraries under the following web address: http://www.helmet.fi/en-US/Libraries_and_services . Clicking the library name will bring you to the page where you'll find the contact information of the library.
Unfortunately there isn't children's books about diabetes in english in Helmet libraries (Helsinki Metropolitan Area Libraries): children's books about the subject are available only in finnish and swedish. The search on the database of The Finnish Institute for Children’s Literature didn't bring results either.
There seem to be a few books you are looking for in international online stores. There is also three free self made books about diabetes under the following site: http://grandmasandy.org/books-info.html
Unfortunately, The startup owner's manual is available only as an interlibrary loan - we don't have a copy of our own.
