SUMMARY:Re-Style It Re-Use It
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly Clothes Repair Workshop 4.15 – 6.15pm\n\nOur workshop is a friendly and practical space dedicated to giving your wardrobe a longer life. Whether it’s a missing button\, a small tear\, or a worn patch\, this workshop is all about repairing and refreshing your clothes so they can be loved and worn again.\n\nIt’s not a formal sewing lesson—you won’t be taught how to sew from scratch—but you will pick up useful tips\, ideas\, and confidence in mending.\n\nThis workshop is open to all ages (children accompanied by an adult) and is designed for anyone who wants to make their clothes last longer\, reduce waste\, and get creative with fabric. All basic materials and equipment will be provided\, including needles\, thread\, scissors\, fabric scraps\, and iron-on patches. Simply bring along the items you’d like to repair—whether that’s one well-loved piece or a few items you’ve been meaning to fix. You’re also welcome to return each week with new items.\n\nRepairing our clothes is about more than just saving money; it’s an act of sustainability. By mending instead of discarding\, we reduce textile waste\, cut down on fast fashion consumption\, and celebrate the stories our clothes carry. With a little creativity\, even the smallest repair can become a unique feature that adds character and charm.
